Re: [homegate] Update on BOF / WG formation

I concur, I have a hard time understanding given this scope how it could differentiate versus existing work by other WGs, as well as other existing standards bodies focused on this area.  It feels like it would end up with a lot of very scope limited patchwork efforts that will be difficult for vendors to follow.

I certainly would continue to urge participation in the IPv6 BCP work, as well as for those interested continuing to support Broadband Forum and HGI efforts which are a bit more comprehensive.

I think the question on the table now is whether it is worthwhile to
charter homenet for just this type of work or not. I tend to think the
answer to that is no, but I want to hear from the list first.

For the avoidance of doubt, that is my position too.
