I have read draft-palet-v6ops-rfc7915-bis-01 as compared to RFC7915.
I think that a goal of this effort is to Internet Standard?

The major changes I see seem to be in section 5.2/4.2 around ICMP message
explanation.  And 4.2/3.2.
But, a lot of it just looks like bad reformatting.
Do you think you can fix that?
IGMP messages is new?

My experiences have been with Jool, and Ecdysis (a long time).
I'm a very keen user of this, particularly for making v4-only equipment
reachable in limited (v6-only) domains.

I think you could leave many of the previous authors in place.
Obviously not Fred or anyone else who does not answer.
(Ha. So, many of the changes are for ICMP Unreachable...)

But Fernando...
