	Title           : Considerations for IPv6 Address Selection Policy Changes

RFC 3484 (IPv6 Default Address Selection) [RFC3484] defines
mechanisms for nodes to perform source and destination address
selection choices when faced with multiple addresses to choose
between when initiating a communication.  While RFC3484 recognised
the need for implementations to be able to change the policy table, a
requirement has now also emerged for administrators to be able to
dynamically change the policy tables from a central control point,
and for nomadic hosts to be able to obtain the policy for the network
that they are currently attached to without manual user intervention.
This text discusses considerations for such policy changes, including
examples of cases where a change of policy is required, and the
likely frequency of such policy changes.  This text also includes
some discussion on the need to also update RFC3484, where default
policies are currently defined.
