This is one of the most common comments I¹ve gotten so far. I do think there¹s operational experience with all of the major transition technologies, but they¹re all still fairly new. What would folks think of modifying the statement from: the IETF will no longer work on IPv4 technologies, including transition technologies. To: the IETF will no longer develop new IPv4 technologies, including IPv4-IPv6 transition technologies. I¹d like to get across the idea that new development will be in IPv6, not IPv4. The IPv4 spec itself won¹t be updated at all (once it¹s Historic), but transition technologies could be revised for operational and security reasons. Also, I feel pretty strongly (but will listen to consensus) that it¹s too late to develop any new transition (or life-extension) technologies. > >Also i would to have more information about the draft's effect on DHCP >and any new options may come out. What would you like it to say? Can we stop it with new DHCP (v4) options, and just put them in IPv6? Do we need to list all IPv4-specific protocols and technologies and specify whether they can be revised? > >-- >Tassos Thanks, Lee _______________________________________________ sunset4 mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sunset4
