Re: [v6ops] New Version Notification for draft-lopez-v6ops-dc-ipv6-04.txt

Hi Arturo,

Thanks for the update.

Without reading the document in detail, I was wondering why do you think it should be published as "Standards Track". This WG published similar documents (such as RFC 5963) as Informational.

Regards,
Roque
