Re: [v6ops] I-D Action: draft-ietf-v6ops-ipv6rtr-reqs-03.txt

Hi,

I think Section 1.3 makes the scope much clearer, thanks.

Maybe a couple of points need to be added to the Abstract too:

 This document is not designed to apply to consumer devices; it is
 up to each provider or equipment purchaser to determine how best to
 apply it to their environment.

Regards
   Brian
