I'm including both groups in this response.

When a doc is "shopped around", that tells me it's not ready for
anything. The ADs should determine where a doc belongs and should alert
related WGs at that time - and during WGLC.

I disagree. This is a significant change to the IPv6 spec; the 6man
charter excludes those:

---
The 6man working group is responsible for the maintenance, upkeep, and
advancement of the IPv6 protocol specifications and addressing
architecture. It is not chartered to develop major changes or additions
to the IPv6 specifications....

Agreed. IMO, advice should be limited to explaining cases that fall
under MAY or SHOULD in other documents.

Anything that overrides a MUST or MUST NOT needs to happen in the WG
chartered to update the original doc; AFAICT, that's only INTAREA in
this case (if not, it's certainly not *OPS or *MAN).
