[DNA] DNA and TSLLAO

[Greg Daley <greg.daley@eng.monash.edu.au>]

Dear WG,

Please be aware that there's some conflict of interest here
(being one of the authors of the document), so I'd like to
be guided by the WG's opinion.

I've been discussing the use of
Tentative Source Link-Layer Address Options (TSLLAO)s
with some of the people in the DT, and it seems that
there's some belief that TSLLAOs are useful for DNA.

I'd like to confirm if this is the case on the mailing list,
and if so, determine what to do with the existing draft.

The draft is: draft-daley-ipv6-tsllao-01.txt

It's referenced from draft-pentland-dna-protocol-00.txt,
and is relied upon for delivery of unicast fast RAs to
Optimistic addresses.

There's an experimental implementation of the technology
available using RADVD, as well as a partial implementation
(doesn't use optimistic DAD) for an RS sender.

Do people think it would be useful for this technology to
be standardized?

If so, where should it go:

a) within the DNA solution

b) as a separate document within DNA

c) ask IPv6 (or another suggested WG) to work on it?

At this stage, discussion is encouraged, so that people
can devlop opinions over time.

If there's significant interest, though, I can tentatively
approach the IPv6 chairs for their (early) opinion too.

Please tell me what you think, and alternative ideas and
opinions are welcome.

Greg.
