I think the consensus we had in the past BoFs and discussion in and around
this topic can be summed up as stating that homenet deliverables will:
- coexist with (existing) IPv4 protocols, devices, applications, etc.
- operate in a (future) IPv6-only home network in the absence of IPv4
- be IP-agnostic whenever possible
I'd like for this group to relax the "wherever possible" bit, so as to not
preclude solutions where IPv6 can do a better job than IPv4.
Yes, and I think that IPv6 should naturally do a better job than IPv4 in the
cases where it can.
My original mail had this restatement of the above, which I think gets closer
to what you want:
However, when we can define something that is needed for IPv6 in a way that
is also useful for IPv4 without making significant concessions, we should go
ahead and do so.

IPv4 is a dinosaur gasping for its last breaths.
