Re: [MEXT] I-D Action:draft-ietf-mext-rfc3775bis-13.txt

Hello Julien,

You're welcome.  It's been more than a dozen
years since the start of RFC 3775, and quite
an experience.  I remember when we were pretty
sure that IPv6 would be widely available
by year 2000 or so, and we'd all have quite
heterogeneous access to converged mobile/fixed
voice/data networks.  I guess something went
wrong along the way.

Regards,
Charlie P.
