The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 Maintenance WG (6man) to consider the following document: - 'Representing IPv6 Zone Identifiers in Address Literals and Uniform Resource Identifiers' <draft-ietf-6man-uri-zoneid-05.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2012-11-26. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes how the Zone Identifier of an IPv6 scoped address can be represented in a literal IPv6 address and in a Uniform Resource Identifier that includes such a literal address. It updates RFC 3986 accordingly. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6man-uri-zoneid/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6man-uri-zoneid/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
