Well, there are two questions here. One is whether the WG believes the update as described in draft-ietf-6man-rfc3484-revise-05 is correct and complete. I have not seen (yet) any significant technical concerns raised. The last of those were discussed and (we believe) resolved in Quebec. Are there any more?
The other is whether the WG believes we should publish an update, or a complete fresh version of RFC3484. This was discussed previously in the WG and the update path preferred. If a fresh version is now deemed more appropriate, I am fine to work on that with the other authors if required. We just need a decision so we can progress this - it's been so close to release for a long time. Many of the changes in the update have been implemented in a number of platforms already.
