Good News!

...
In response to the IANA review:

OLD:

    Instead, IANA is requested to mark the 192.88.99.0/24
    prefix originally defined by [RFC3068] as "Deprecated (6to4 Relay
    Anycast)", pointing to the present document.

NEW:

    Instead, IANA is requested to mark the 192.88.99.0/24
    prefix originally defined by [RFC3068] as "Deprecated (6to4 Relay
    Anycast)", pointing to the present document. The Boolean values
    for the address block 192.88.99.0/24 will all be removed.

What is the rationale for removing the Boolean values? Wouldn't the current values apply until the prefix is repurposed or removed by future protocol action?

I'm not sure I really care, but I don't understand what is served by removing the current values. I'm not sure what purpose the Boolean values really serve, but the current values seem the most appropriate until the prefix is permanently removed or repurposed.

Thanks.
