Thomas,

Totally agree.  Around the day I published our document, I contacted the
Chairs of 6man and also contacted a v6ops Chair to discuss resolving the
two documents.  I and Wes would have totally worked with Rajiv to
resolve the two documents issue.  However, during last week Rajiv was
out on PTO and this week he is away too.  That is why closing the issue
has taken time.  The draft-asati-01 does not have a workable solution
yet.  See

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipv6/current/msg14828.html

The email in the URL above also proposes a path moving forward for one
document in 6man.  See other questions asked of the draft-asati that
haven't been closed yet.

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/v6ops/current/msg10411.html

That is why we wrote our document because we need a solution ASAP for
broadband network DAD loop back issues.

The WG should produce one single document, not two. This is pretty
simple stuff here and we don't need 2 documents, each only 5 pages
long.

Indeed, I think it's sort of unfortunate that we have started out with
two competing documents, for no good reason that I can see. Its not
like the proposed approaches are different.

Per previous mailing list discussion, the problem and solution are
pretty straightforward. Let's ensure that one document gets
published quickly.

Thomas
