Re: Where to find IETF recommendations?

Bob,

Are recommendations actually published as BCP?

I only see one BCP with "IPv6" in the title, published back in 2004.
Compared to this, the ipv6ops working group alone has produced dozens of
informational RFCs:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/v6ops/

At least one of these are even explicitly recommendations:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc4890/

Some are targeted at protocol developers, some at vendors, some at
operators. It's quite a mixed bag. :)

I'm not complaining, I just want to know if I am missing an obvious
place.
