The IESG is dead-set against this. because the IESG has turned over N times during those 8 years, and the idea is still solid and useful and interesting, and the current proposed RFC is experimental, and most importantly, because the need for it will continue to resurface until we push it over the top of the hill and roll it down to the town. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list [email protected] Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
