Dear all:

I have submitted an updated I-D updating RFC 3074 to apply to DHCPv6.

The text is available at:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-kostur-dhc-loadbv6-01.txt



Major changes:

Added a new Section 3.1 to discuss the requests with a Server ID specified.

Modified the specification of the STID to remove the restriction to 16 bytes.



Remaining currently outstanding item:

There is still outstanding discussion around whether section 3.1 may
apply to all messages, vs. whether a server should always answer a
Release and/or Decline.  See discussion between myself and Bernie.



Comments and suggestions welcome.   I am looking to have the WG take
this on as a work item.
