Folks,

I think that one error in which we have incurred at least in the couple
of years (myself included) is that we focus our discussion on
"mac-derived addresses vs privacy addresses" when the question should
really be about "stable addresses vs. temporary addresses".

Given that the question is being driven by the work going into 3484bis, I disagree. The question I asked is querying people's choice for preferring temporary (RFC 4941) addresses over public addresses when performing address selection.

The discussion of defining a new form of stable address as opposed to the current EUI-64-derived addressing is a separate topic. This is especially relevant given the state of 3484bis (ready for WGLC).

Regards,
Brian
