Advancing <draft-ietf-6man-node-req-bis-10.txt>

6man w.g.,

The 6man chairs believe the working group has reached a consensus on advancing this version of the update to Node Requirements to the IESG.  The current discussion on the list relating to SLAAC and DHCPv6 is out of scope for the Node Requirements document.  There is more involved in the discussion than can be dealt with by changing requirements language as would be appropriate for the Node Requirements document.  

We plan to advance <draft-ietf-6man-node-req-bis-10.txt> to the IESG later today.

Regards,
Bob Hinden & Brian Haberman
6man Chairs
