I am mildly annoyed that this wasn't anticipated in the first last
call, and that we didn't just extend the last call for two weeks to
accommodate this, since RFC 6410 wasn't published when this doc was
processed before.  That said, this is a transition issue, and, as far
as I can tell, this is the *only* document that's affected.  And a
four-week delay in moving this forward will do no harm whatsoever.  I
agree with Russ's assessment that it's not a good idea to try to make
the first application of 6410 be an exception.

So, yes, let's do another four-week last call just on this point, and
then get this out as the first upgrade to Internet Standard.
