Brian,
I'm with you. I don't use A6 record in any case.

Hi,

What do 6man people think about moving RFC 2874 (the A6 record)
from Experimental to Historic status?

It's pretty clear that it doesn't have any real value, and
it can still create confusion for newcomers.

IMHO this doesn't need a draft; the IESG could just do it.
