Ted,

>> could we go forward with this draft that clarifies how multiple stateful options work in a single session, and with the general assumption that a client will choose one DHCP server and that server is authoritative?
> 
> My concern is that if you do so, it will essentially result in clients standardizing on whatever behavior you specify, and so whether we write another standard or not, it will not be available in practice.

to turn the question around.
is there anyone who thinks that we should _not_ make multiple stateful options work in a single DHCP session?

cheers,
Ole
