I've not gone through the entire document (it's so huge...), but I'd
like to make some points at this moment.
1. as we've seen in the AD comments on rfc2462bis, the confusing
wording "stateful" will be an issue in rfc2461bis, too. If we
adopt the same consensus we've reached in the rfc2462bis
discussion, we'll have to remove the phrase of "stateful", and just
use DHCPv6 wherever appropriate. In particular, we'll have to
rename the name of the "O" flag of RA, which is currently called
"Other stateful configuration" flag.
2. according to the recent consensus on the M/O flag in the rfc2462bis
discussion, references to [ADDRCONF] (= rfc2462bis) regarding the
M/O flags will be inappropriate. Possible resolutions would
include:
A: move descriptions of these flags to the newly-adopted "M/O flag
consideration" document as will be done in rfc2462bis.
B: replace the references to [ADDRCONF] regarding the M/O flags
with references to the new "M/O" document. We'll then need to
consider a reference dependency issue.
