Working Group,

During what we thought would be a short wglc on draft-ietf-mpls-ldp-ipv6
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/mpls/current/msg12464.html
we had a comment that stopped us from continuing progressing the
draft.

The short working group last call is now closed!

The comment we refer to was raised in a private mail to the working
group chairs and the draft authors.

It says that there are a problem with some RFC 5036 non-compliant
implementations deployed and draft-ietf-mpls-ldp-ipv6. There is no
detailed description of the exact problems.

We strongly encourage the people that made the comment(s) to write-up
the problem, either as

- a new draft (preferred); or
- in a mail to the working group mailing list

Once we an agreement to write a new draft or the write-up to the
mailing, we will continue to ask the working group to see if we
can agree to a way to progress. We like to see this
write-up before September 1. Failing this we will continue to
progress the draft-ietf-mpls-ldp-ipv6 as is.

/Loa
for the working group chairs
