Re: I-D Action: draft-ietf-6man-ipv6only-flag-03.txt

[David Schinazi <[e-mail]>]

Hello,

I am still opposed to advancing draft-ietf-6man-ipv6only-flag to Proposed
Standard.

-03 does not address my concerns, it adds notes acknowledging my points,
but the notes do not solve the underlying issues I raised. IPv6 RAs are not
necessarily the right place to solve the issue described, and I have yet to
hear client host manufacturers indicate they are interested in this work.
Is there even running code of this proposal? I think making this a standard
would be premature at this point.

Thanks,
David Schinazi
