Hi Dan
 
inline please,
 
I believe the objection is against "non-deterministic translation",
rather than stateful versus stateless.  By non-deterministic, I mean
that the subscriber's equipment (e.g., CPE) cannot determine the
mapping it will have on the Internet.  A+P mechanisms are
Could you help be more elaboration on CPE can't determine the ampping?
 
deterministic (including 4rd, Dual-IVI, and draft-ymbk-aplus-p).
By the way, I would say you are missing one early draft: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-murakami-softwire-4v6-translation-00
which is align with 4rd  about 4v6 translation which has been contributed by major operators which is also align with NAT64 deployment.

A stateful CGN, as commonly deployed, is not deterministic.

However -- and this is my point in this email -- a stateful CGN
can be configured and deployed so that it deterministically maps
traffic.  That is, it can function very much like A+P/4rd/Dual-IVI
so that port "N" from subscriber "A" is always mapped to public
port "Z" on IPv4 address "Y".  We could have the CPE know about
that fixed mapping using the same DHCP options that A+P/4rd/
Dual-IVI would use, or use PCP, or use some other protocol.
