While preparing the slides for the 6MAN session and looking at the datatracker (https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/6man/documents/) we noticed that there were six expired working group documents.

The list of expired w.g. documents including the calendar year they expired:

draft-ietf-6man-slaac-renum-07, Improving the Robustness of Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) to Flash Renumbering Events, 2023

draft-ietf-6man-rs-refresh-02, IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Optional RS/RA Refresh, 2016

draft-ietf-6man-hbh-header-handling-03, IPv6 Hop-by-Hop Options Extension Header, 2016

draft-ietf-6man-nd-opt-validation-00, Validation of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Options, 2015

draft-ietf-6man-addr-select-considerations-05, Considerations for IPv6 Address Selection Policy Changes, 2013

draft-ietf-ipv6-ula-central-02, Centrally Assigned Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Addresses, 2007


The first expired recently (and the authors plan to resubmit), the remainder expired between 7 and 16 years ago.

We think the five older drafts should no longer be considered to be w.g. drafts.  We propose to change the datatracker status of these drafts and wanted to confirm this with the 6MAN working group.

Please let the chairs know by 17 November 2023 if you have any objections to the chairs taking this action.
