Re: [IPv6] IOAM, iOAM, and oOAM abbreviations

Greg,

With my 6MAN hat on very loosely, I don’t think this discussion needs to be on the IPV6 list.

Resulting from that, RFC Editor agreed to add IOAM to the RFC Editor Abbreviation List <https://www.rfc-editor.org/materials/abbrev.expansion.txt>. The other two abbreviations cannot be added at this time. If that is needed, we can ask the RFC Editor to add them once the respective RFC is published.
