Re: [v6ops] new draft: draft-ietf-v6ops-6204bis

Roberta,

> I agree with Barbara: it would be better to have all the requirements related to IPv4/IPv6 migration in a single document.
> When we talk about IPv6 migration we always consider also the phase of IPv4/IPv6 co-existence in order to make the transition happening. I mentioned CGN, but what I had in mind is the DS-Lite case where CGN is embedded in the AFTR and PCP fits in this scenario.

"Basic requirements for IPv4/IPv6 transition for CE routers"?

cheers,
Ole
