I think you're going to need substantially more explanation (and
perhaps some data) to make a convincing case that RFC 6686 needs to be
reconsidered, thereby affecting this last call. The above states a
conclusion, but provides no data or explanation. I don't know how to
evaluation this.

Of course, I meant, "I don't know how to *evaluate* this."


From earlier exchanges about this concern, the assertion that I recall is that 7 years is not long enough, to determine whether a feature will be adopted. That is, failure to gain deployment traction after 7 years from the time of publication should not be taken as a sufficient waiting period.

I do not recall anyone (else) showing support for that view, but certainly not any substantial constituency.
