Ah, yes, the workers are quite revolting!

load of crap.

make ipv6 easier to deploy, especially in enterprise.  repeat the
previous sentence 42 times.


I'm still waiting for the IETF to come around
to allowing feature parity between IPv4 and IPv6
when it comes to DHCP.  The stance of not
allowing the DHCP server to assign a default
gateway to the host in IPv6 is a big stumbling
point for at least one large enterprise I'm aware
of. 


Tell me again why you want this, and not routing information from the
router?


Right now, the biggest obstacle to IPv6
deployment seems to be the ivory-tower types
in the IETF that want to keep it pristine, vs
allowing it to work in the real world.

There¹s a mix of people at IETF, but more operator input there would be
helpful. I have a particular draft in mind that is stuck between ³we¹d
rather delay IPv6 than do it wrong² and ³be realistic about how people
will deploy it."
