After some discussion, the IESG is attempting to determine whether there is 
IETF consensus to do the following:

- add a new section to draft-ietf-v6ops-6to4-to-historic
- publish draft-ietf-v6ops-6to4-to-historic as INFORMATIONAL

draft-ietf-v6ops-6to4-to-historic will obsolete RFCs 3056 and 3068 and 
convert their status to HISTORIC. It will also contain a new section 
describing what it means for RFCs 3056 and 3068 to be classified as 
HISTORIC. The new section will say that:

- 6-to-4 should not be configured by default on any implementation (hosts, 
cpe routers, other)
- vendors will decide whether/when 6-to-4 will be removed from 
implementations. Likewise, operators will decide whether/when 6-to-4 relays 
will be removed from their networks. The status of RFCs 3056 and 3068 should 
not be interpreted as a recommendation to remove 6-to-4 at any particular 
time.


draft-ietf-v6ops-6to4-to-historic will not update RFC 2026. While it 
clarifies the meaning of "HISTORIC" in this particular case, it does not set 
a precedent for any future case.

I support this approach.

Suggestion to make the two RFC Experimental has been made, and received some 
support.
I haven't seen objections tho this compromise approach.
Are there some?
