Changing to No Obj on the understanding that this is going to change to

Hi,

I'm abstaining because whilst I think that the solution here is clever, I'm
less convinced that it is a good idea, particularly as an IETF standards track
document.  In particular, the use of 192.0.0.8 as a source address could easily
be quite confusing for end-hosts trying to figure out network issues.  It would
be interesting to know whether there are any real or planned deployments of
this draft.

Regards,
Rob
