Re: [mpls] Missing RFC in draft-ietf-mpls-ipv6-only-gap?

Wes,

Tnx - I was about to sit down and write pretty much the same mail, a
further comment would be that doing a gap analysis is always at risk of
not cover 100%, but that that on the other hand is not a real problem.
what we need now is some way of following how the gaps evolves/closes
and this could be handle as part of that.
