o Complete work on Centrally Allocated Unique Local Addresses

Considering ULA as a core IPv6 protocol is a hard sell.
I personally am not considering ULA a core protocol. However, the work
on ULA (whatever the outcome) needs a home.
I agree that ULA-C "needs a home" but disagree the IPv6 Maintenance WG is it,
given:
* the first paragraph of the proposed charter:
"The sole purpose of this group is in the maintenance of the core
IPv6 protocol specifications and *not* in the development of new
solutions or changes to the specifications.."
&& at least one of the group chairs doesn't consider it to be a core protocol,
It probably isnt a core protocol, it is a set of IP addresses out of the
IPv6 address scope. I guess the right question is:
- who should in the future decide on usage of other sub-set of the IPv6
address scope?
&& at least one of the group chairs doesn't see group consensus on ULA-C,
&& there are other group members who don't see group consensus on ULA-C,
&& we haven't heard from any group members who do see group consensus on ULA-C,
well I wouldn't claim there are any consensus right now but there are two
draft out there and the merge between them has been ignored for a month...
do people just wish the entire discussion to die away and ignore it?
(sorry for the hard wordings of that sentence)
&& "Complete work" is meant to be predicated upon group consensus
I'd say it should be removed from the charter.
why... it is a open discussion with two suggested draft as said above and
it is moving in the direction of some sort of consensus.
