Joe,

This is a timely topic, because IPv6 WG just less than week ago forwarded the revision of the addressing architecture to be published as Draft Standard. (IPv6 WG is Cc:ed.)

That draft, http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipv6-addr-arch-v4-02.txt still has the problematic wording wrt anycast addresses.

Following comments at the meeting in Minneapolis regarding the conflict between draft-ietf-grow-anycast and the v6 addressing spec (which imposes a prohibition on v6 anycast) I wrote up the following:

 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-jabley-v6-anycast-clarify-00.txt

This document might be seen as a companion to a revised draft-ietf-grow-anycast, removing the v6 anycast prohibition such that the anycast document is no longer at odds with the current v6 spec.

Comments on this approach (and the draft) would be most welcome.


Joe
