The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 Maintenance WG (6man) to consider the following document: - 'Updates to the IPv6 Multicast Addressing Architecture' <draft-ietf-6man-multicast-addr-arch-update-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 2014-07-02. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead.
