Actually, I was more interested in the quote rather than the IPv6. You
notice that the portion I extracted (which contained the quote) was NOT

the Mobile IP WG list, you will realize that the WG is
now in the final stages of completing the work on MIPv6.

"It's a setback for those who are eager to get IPv6 out there," says
Steve Deering, a Cisco engineer who helped design IPv6 and
serves on the IETF's Internet Architecture Board. "The Mobile IP working
group has
been working on this since 1991. It's been a long process.""
