FWIW, I wouldn't mind advancing it if there is significant new 
evidence or experience to document at the same time.  If not (perhaps 
you were referring to this), just updating on the standards track and 
keeping the document unchanged, doesn't seem to have that much point 
given we need to put energy to other work as well.

Site-locals and ULAs is one area where I suspect our understanding of 
the situation has improved, and will continue to improve.  Timing the 
update properly to gather that understanding is probably a good idea.
