When MIF was closed, work was directed to another working group.

I'd like to see similar guidance for the closing of this WG. There is 
still work to be done, for instance the discussions in v6ops/6man on an 
"no-v4-here"-flag is quite obvious fit there, but other 
discussions/guidance on how to behave when there seems to be no IPv4 
around, where should this take place? For instance discussions on backoff 
timers for DHCPv4 / DNSSD v4 usage in the abscence of no automatic v4 seen 
when connecting?

I can understand that the discussions we've had are not enough to warrant 
a WG, but it doesn't mean there are no discussions at all. It would be 
good if they had a home.
