Alex,

Since 6to4 is a transition mechanism it has no long term future
*by definition*. Even if someone chooses to design a v2, who is going to
implement it?

If you have a reason to install and enable 6to4, why would the nominal
status of a couple of RFCs make you do anything different?

Of course, if implementors choose to drop the code you might not be
able to upgrade software versions - but hopefully by that time you
will have native IPv6 service anyway.

Which is exactly why HISTORIC is NOT appropriate.
