Moreover, this (what Brian said) is not correct, as far as I know.

The facts are:

  1. there is code that sets the M&O bits. (router implementations)
  2. there are at least two implementations that read and act on the O
     bit.  These two implementations both invoke stateless DHCPv6 as
     the action.
  3. there is no known implementation that reads and acts on the M
     bit.

As I repeatedly said, I don't stick to deprecating these bits.
However, we at least need to discuss things on the correct
information.

My biggest question is: can we recycle rfc2462bis as DS despite fact
3?
