The following is indicated within draft-ietf-6man-text-addr-representation-07 
section 4.2.1 Shorten As Much As Possible.

"The use of symbol "::" MUST be used to its maximum capability.  For example, 
2001:db8::0:1 is not acceptable, because the symbol "::" could have been used 
to produce a shorter representation 2001:db8::1."

Concerning "::" usage, is the requirement that 
1) "::" MUST be used when valid, or 
2) only that if used, it MUST be used to its maximum capability?

Thanks,
Brett
