Re: [lisp] LISP Interworking: Proxy Egress Tunnel Routers

[Jari Arkko <[e-mail]>]

This working group is not chartered to develop solutions to the 
IPv4-IPv6 transition problem. We have plenty of other working groups in 
that space already.

Of course, I understand that pretty much any tunneling or translation 
technique can be used for IPv6 deployment as well. I do not mind if such 
use case gets mentioned in a list of other potential uses of Lisp. 
However, the main use case, deployment rationale, etc. needs to stand on 
its own and talk about routing scalability, traffic engineering, and 
other things central to Lisp. I also understand that what we develop 
technology X for may not be what it eventually gets used for; we've been 
surprised before. Lets see what happens with Lisp. But for the RFCs that 
come out of this working group, lets focus on the initial main reason 
why Lisp was developed.
