All,
I am trying to work offline with the author.  I suggested a couple of weeks ago 
that he start with reviewing existing work.
I am just now returning home from IETF in Seoul.   I will continue to try to 
work offline with Khaled for some more time. Thanks,

SM,

The right place to discuss this draft was the 
big-internet(_at_)munnari(_dot_)oz(_dot_)au list
in 1992-1994. As several people have tried to explain to the author, both 
on-list
and off-list, this class of proposal was overtaken by events many years ago.
It really attempts, but fails, to solve the problem that has already been solved
in all popular operating systems by the implementation of dual stacks. Its 
chance
of success in the real Internet is precisely zero.

I strongly encourage the author, who is clearly technically competent, to work
on current problems. (Also to start by reading 
https://www.ietf.org/newcomers.html.)

Regards
  Brian Carpenter

Hi Khaled,

You can find the new modified IPmix text RFC version attached.

The usual way to submit an Internet-Draft is through 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/submit/

The Sergeant-at-arms wrote a message [1] about the previous document 
which was sent as an attachment. He stated that "you need to check 
with the relevant chairs to find the right venue" [1].  In my opinion 
the ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing list is not the best venue to discuss 
about 
your proposal as the Sergeant-at-arms already commented about that in 
his message.
