All, This is my promised ID that updates RFC 6874 to add the IPvFuture syntax that was adopted from the previous, abandoned draft on this subject (back in 2005) and is implemented widely in clients and printers, and also updates the HTTP conformance requirements and guidance to include the client's zone ID in requests sent to the server (so that the server can generate link-local URIs the client can actually use...)
