Mark,

I'm tempted to start the migration to Kea, but the documentation is extremely vague on proper migration.  If we intend to move in that direction, we'll need to have a migration guide of some sort, so that it's a more seamless transition for people.  Just a thought.

Thanks for raising the topic. Upstream is clearly signalling their preference for a Kea-only future, so one way or another folks who are on ISC dhcpd are going to need to pick a new offering. I moved a network to Kea last year because ISC dhcpd HA had a number of unexpected behaviours, Kea seems much more rational in that regard and a good fit for our own offerings and services such as MAAS. I also think we might be able to contribute dqlite support for Kea upstream, which would make HA even easier.
