Folks,

I did a presentation on the topic at the IEPG meeting earlier this week.
It provides some concrete data regarding IPv6 fragmentation and
Extension Header filtering on the Internet.

The slideware is available at:
<http://www.iepg.org/2013-11-ietf88/fgont-iepg-ietf88-ipv6-frag-and-eh.pdf>

Certainly there's *much* more work to be done in this area, but I
thought that this could be good food sfor some of the discussions that
we were having on the topic.

Thanks,
--
