Folks:

Victor and I have been talking with the chairs about the Design Choices draft, and have convinced us act on a request from Michael Ackermann to extend the Design Choices draft to cover EIGRP.

To do this, we are looking for information on dual-stack networks that run EIGRP.

Specifically we want to get feedback on production dual-stack networks that run EIGRP. We are interested in any of the following combinations:

* EIGRP for both IPv4 and IPv6
* EIGRP for IPv4 and OSPF/ISIS for IPv6
* OSPF/ISIS for IPv4 and EIGRP for IPv6

If you know of any such networks, then please email either Victor or myself. (If you are concerned about doing this, then you could email one of the chairs instead).

Our goal is to get answers to the following questions:
1) Is this combination known to work well -- in other words, have multiple production networks used it without problems?
2) Why was this particular dual-stack combination chosen? 
3) Any comments or pieces of advice that you would like to pass on?

Philip
