I have determined that the consensus of this working group is that the two Internet-Drafts, draft-ietf-pppext-ipv6-dns-addr-03.txt and draft-ietf-pppext-ipv6-prefix-00.txt not be considered for advancement as products of PPPEXT because they duplicate methods better addressed by other, existing protocols. Not only this, but we will also object to the IESG if they are proposed as individual, non-working-group submissions. Historically, the people on this mailing list have been both vociferous and consistent on this topic--use existing protocols to do the jobs for which they were designed rather than duplicating their functions in PPP for reasons related to their specific implementation or infrastructure.
