Jari,

As the NAT66 discussion seems to be happening in several WGs at once, it
seems to me (and Tim) that you should try to hold some sort of joint meeting
in INT-AREA to get some sort of consensus yes or no for NAT in v6 or at
least to do a gap analysis

Current Groups working on it are v6OPS, BEHAVE, Softwires, RRG, and now v6.

Thanks,
Eric

Well the ASRG has 'invaded' the main ietf list, I think nat66 is best
placed there... as ULAs and other issues were.    And yes I suspect nat66
could usefully be discussed in Minneapolis in int-area, v6man and behave,
but int-area would be a nice 'cross wg' place to hold a general discussion,
so ask the chair(s) :)
