Hi,

(Still on v6ops, although 6man might be appropriate.)

I think that there are some topics quite deep inside the
draft that really belong nearer the beginning. After all,
these are the issues that will guide future work: do we add
feature X to RA, DHCPv6, or both?.

In a logical order, these topics are:

a) 4. Differences between different types of network operators

b) 2.11. Scope of use / Applicability
(e.g. 2.7. Involvement or not into routing)
(e.g. to what extent do we want feature-equivalence
and a shared data model?)

c) 2.10.  Separate vs. unified management

There may be other general topics but those three stood
out for me.

Oh, and there's this:

> 2.13.  Security tools impact comparison

Not quite sure what I had in mind there. What I wrote (in
off-list mail) was "There's also the question of how the
approaches relate to APAM tools and to security tools."
I can see that there might be interaction with APAM. Maybe
there needs to be interaction with address-based security
settings?

Regards
