My recollection was that the room rejected changes to RFC 4007 that involved including a new delimiter (thus taking a pure "cut and paste" solution off the table). I don't recall that clarifications to RFC 4007 to restrict the character set of zone identifiers <zone_id> was discussed at length or voted on. - interface names may themselves have to escaped (non-roman or [] > characters) > > It may be that restricting the character set of <zone_id> at this point may cause as many problems for existing tools like ping6 as adding a new delimiter; still, I'd like to hear some discussion on Brian's proposal to update RFC 4007 in conjunction with this draft. Also, the minutes should reflect that my thanks (and I suspect that I speak for others) also extend to Brian for taking on this task. My exact words were "... an illustration that no good deed goes unpunished".
