Ole,

I'm far from convinced that saying we stop - while the issue is a very big can of worms - is a good idea.  Right now, there is a clear issue on the table here - and there are no proposals on how to address this - where addressing it would be either to remove the issue from the draft or propose something to update RFC8200 from my perspective.  I fail to see how we can therefore  think that closing this discussion to "some other unforeseen date" helps anyone - other than pushing the can down the road...

Andrew

Pot calling kettle black?

This is an issue we all know is there. And has to be resolved one way or the other. I am sure you will get ample opportunity to debate later.

How this thread or discussing the topic on those terms adds value is beyond me. So I suggest we stop.

Ole
