The co-authors' plan is to revise the draft according to the comments in hand
(mainly Pekka's) and offer the revision to the WG chairs as the response to the
WG last call. I also discussed with a few security people yesterday, and I
will ask them to have a look at the revised security
apologies for spamming the list with this query twice. seems i am not
receiving mail to the list - i guess as a result of the 'too many hops'
problem recently announced. i am chasing this internally now.

The current work items in the wg charter and Margaret's presentation on
document status in the WG meeting shows PPPv6 as one of the items. Could
someone clarify what changes/updates are being considered for IPv6 over PPP
rfc? Are they technical or editorial/clarification of existing text?

I've read this document, and I would like to see it accepted as
a WG document and charter item.
Comments on the current text:
Section 3
It is recommended that the application does a getsockopt() prior
calling to setsockopt() call so that it can save the existing
source address preference
I think the above paragraph is unneeded and confuses the issue.
Setting the flags to 0 will restore the system default behavior.
If the app is using multiple values at different times, the behavior
is really up to the app, and the issue is not specific to this
socket option. RFC 2553 etc

One other thing I forgot is that, since we need to pass flags
to getaddrinfo as well as the TCP/IP stack, there is a need to fit
all the flags (whether there are only prefer or prefer+require flags) into
the flag name space for getaddrinfo.
This has some implication on the number of flags one

Agreed. But how can a node find an address without MUST DNS. The point
is that a requirement to use is based on the situation. My point last
night.

The earlier drafts used different language to try to capture these
conditional requirements. The WG did not like the terms

Currently, this specification is being updated by [ADDRARCHv3].

Nope. Just heads up. It hopefully will be transparent.

Hi all,
With all due respect, I think this is short sighted. Today you almost
cannot buy a DSL router for home use that doesn't have an integrated
DHCP server, among all kinds of other strange stuff. To make a future
equivalents of such devices also talk DHCPv6 is clearly possible.
