I think that the aim of this contribution is quite different from your understanding, at least from France Telecom point of view. The aim was to list the requirements that a DHCP-based solution should fulfill, this solution being for now the only working assumption in the DSL Forum. In the conclusion, I think there was something like: "This contribution presents requirements on the usage of the EAP over DHCP authentication method in the context of IP sessions, should the EAP over DHCP method be selected" I'm pretty sure that France Telecom will be able to express their own conclusion/standpoint. Therefore, please do not speak on behalf France Telecom the next time. Even if it is just to express your "feelings".
