Yup, but the AD is closely watching the discussion, because what the
WG wants is critical.

I held up publication because Fernando claimed that this was a
protocol change, and so doing this in V6OPS was a process violation --
as this was right before the meeting I decided it made sense to hold
publication so that A: I could get feedback from the WGs and B: I
could talk to Suresh (in his capacity as 6MAN AD).

Neither Suresh nor I think that this is a protocol change (and these
isn't really even a very fast V6OPS cannot touch protocol) - at the
moment I'm very strongly leaning towards just publishing it, although
(based on discussions with Suresh) I'm *considering* that this should
be Informational instead

Note that versions -04, -05, -06 of the document were Informational;
the GenArt (and other feedback) questioned the BCP status, and it was
(IMO) right on the hairy edge of Informational / BCP (enough that I
asked the IESG to comment on the status during eval). It was right on
the edge before, the new text, WG discussion (and my discussions with
Suresh) may have tipped it over to Informational.

I would feel out the WG about this - would you be OK with this being
Info (and getting it out the door)?

I feel I also owe the WG (and authors) an apology - this has been a
painful process and taken up way more of your time than it should
have.

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
