IPv6 support for ARP mediation was added in
draft-ietf-l2vpn-arp-mediation-08, dated July 2007. The text of the
patent directly refers to revision -09 of the draft, and at least one
of the authors is an IETF regular. The patent was filed in January
2009 and awarded in May 2011. Why is it just being disclosed now?

Thanks,
Andy
