Document Quality

   Are there existing implementations of the protocol?  Have a 
   significant number of vendors indicated their plan to
   implement the specification?  Are there any reviewers that
   merit special mention as having done a thorough review,
   e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a
   conclusion that the document had no substantive issues?  If
   there was a MIB Doctor, Media Type, or other Expert Review,
   what was its course (briefly)?  In the case of a Media Type
   Review, on what date was the request posted?

RFC Editor Note

OLD:
   Note that, for reasons discussed in [RFC2993] and Section 5, the IETF
   does not generally recommend the use of Network Address Translation
   technology.

   This has several ramifications:

NEW:
   Note that, for reasons discussed in [RFC2993] and Section 5, the IETF
   does not generally recommend the use of Network Address Translation
   technology for IPv6. Where Network Address Translation is implemented,
   however, this specification provides a mechanism that has less architectural
   problems than merely implementing a traditional IPv4 NAT in an IPv6
   environment. Some problems remain, however, and the reader should consult
   Section 5, [RFC4864], and [RFC5902], for the implications and approaches
   that help avoid all types of NATs.

   The stateless approach described in this document has several ramifications:
