The draft would be a bit easier to read if it announced its purpose
immediately, both in the abstract and in the introduction. For example, in the
abstract, instead of just stating:
This document clarifies
the status of those bits for interface identifiers that are not
derived from an IEEE link-layer address, and updates RFC 4291
accordingly.
You could have written:
This document clarifies
that these bits only apply to interface identifiers that are explicitly
derived from an IEEE link-layer address, and updates RFC 4291
accordingly.

This draft is a work item of the IPv6 Maintenance Working Group of the IETF.
Title : The U and G bits in IPv6 Interface Identifiers
Author(s) : Brian Carpenter
Sheng Jiang
Filename : draft-ietf-6man-ug-00.txt
Pages : 9
Date : 2013-03-29
Abstract:
The IPv6 addressing architecture defines a method by which the
Universal and Group bits of an IEEE link-layer address are mapped
into an IPv6 unicast interface identifier. This document clarifies
the status of those bits for interface identifiers that are not
derived from an IEEE link-layer address, and updates RFC 4291
accordingly.
