Hi Kurt,

Looks good, some small comments:

> The shim6 WG is to produce specifications for a complete IPv6

-> Could we drop 'complete' - there are some things, like multihoming
policy that is out of scope, but probably is needed to actually
get the thing running.

Otherwise, I think this looks good.
