The problem may be that the document uses the word "architecture". The sense I got after reviewing the document was that it was more of a requirements document instead of one about architecture. I may not be implementing home gateways but I would still read the document to understand what assumptions I can make for my IPv6 application. This entails understanding how what the working group is trying to accomplish affects my area of interest. If I look at the document as one about requirements I'll conclude that there isn't anything that has an impact on application technologies. I agree that it would be good for the working group to evolve the document (see my previous comments about stabilizing the document and having a discussion about unresolved issues). It might have been missed in my comments; what I am saying is that the working group already has the text it needs to get the work done; what's left is some rearrangement and tightening of the text to get a crisp document. >However, I think that if the working group >attempts to do that now, two things will >happen.

Second, the document that is produced >will be purely theoretical, not based on actual practice, and probably useless. Agreed. That's why I emphasized the it "just works" in my previous comment. I would leave it to the working group to make the trade-offs so that the document is about something that will actually work in practice. I would assess the effort so that it does not turn into an all-consuming one. >So I would like you to consider whether you can >accept this restatement of the purpose of the >document.

Given the goals I've stated, do >all of your comments still apply, or would you >have responded differently to the document if >you'd been evaluating it on the basis I'm proposing? I think that the document can be of use to the working group. The document may not be that clear to people from outside the area. I guess that the problem may be, as mentioned above, the goals of the document. If the document is a (Informational) crib sheet I would rate it as good enough. It's unfair of me to submit such a review at this late stage. I have not taken into consideration the amount of effort involved in getting the draft this far. I'll defer to the document shepherd (or you). Regards, S. Moonesamy
