Hi,

The only browser running today that supports IPv6 link-local literals, Internet Explorer, is about to be forcibly removed:

"Internet Explorer retires on June 15, 2022, after which IE will be out of support. Following industry best practices, the IE desktop application will be progressively redirected to Microsoft Edge over the following months, and will ultimately be permanently disabled via a future Windows Update..."

Without comment on "industry best practices", I think we should proceed with rfc6874bis at warp speed.

   Brian
