A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IPv6 Maintenance Working Group of the IETF.

Can we see proposed text please?
I'm on the fence on this one. From an implementation perspective, it
makes little sense for anyone to go off and implement this
today. Until there is a
Upleveling for a minute, why are we even including Link Layers in the
Node *Requirements* doc?
Clearly, we aren't *requiring* any of them, since choice of
appropriate L2s depends on the environment.
Indeed, draft-ietf-6man-node-req-bis-02.txt says:
4. Sub-IP Layer
An IPv6 node must inclu
