With respect...

The document was originally discussed in v6ops, and you chose to not comment. 
It went through last call there in January 2011 and was sent to the IESG. 
IESG review took until April, and an updated draft was posted at the end of 
May 2011. At IETF 81 (Quebec City) we were able to have you, the author, and 
some others discuss it. The IESG again decided it needed a revised draft, and 
that draft - in large part, a rewrite - arrived in October. v6ops had a 
second WGLC, in which you again declined to comment, although you may have 
seen Lorenzo's comments, which were picked up in a November version of the 
draft. Ralph and Jari finally cleared their "discuss" ballots a couple of 
weeks ago, and we are having a second IETF last call.

I'd like to understand your objective here. I know that you don't care for 
the draft, and at least at one point took it as a somewhat-personal attack. 
Is your objective to prevent the draft's publication entirely, or do you 
think that there is value in publishing it given a productive response to 
this comment? At what point are you willing to either participate in the 
public dialog or choose to not comment at all?

With humblest apologies...

Having spent time rereading, I think W6L is clearly an implementation
of  sections 4.5 and 5.7, or 4.4 and 5.6, depending on the
implementer.

Additionally, in retrospect, there's probably no great reason to add a
reference to a future event.  It seems to me that the most meaningful
technical observation that can actually be offered would be its
scheduled calendar date.

There's no excuse for my failing to reread afresh before commenting.
Again, my apologies,
-Erik
