As far as I know, what you're looking for doesn't exist, although it would probably be good if it did!
One thing that does crop up here and there are "hitchhiker's guide" RFCs, such as this one:
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5411>
Beyond that, the best way I know of to look for IETF recommendations on a subject is using the search feature on the tools pages:
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/>
Although they can quite intimidating, I'm fond the the dependency
graphs the accompany the WG pages on tools.ietf.org The link is
at the very bottom of the page - http://tools.ietf.org/wg/v6ops/
Take a look at:
http://www.fenron.net/~fenner/ietf/deps/viz/v6ops.pdf
kind of makes your head hurt.

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.

Shane,
Like this one, aren't recommendations usually published as BCPs?

All,
I just happened to notice this document on ietf-announce today:
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-intarea-server-logging-recommendations/
It seems quite reasonable.
My question is... how is this advice expected to trickle out into actual
use? There are more than 6000 RFCs, and they don't seem to be organized
in a useful way that I can find.
I ask because I was going to forward this to an IPv6 operations list,
and thought "hm... what about the rest?" and I realized I did not know,
and did not even know how to find out.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
