Hi all,

Some suggested that a 4xx code could be better, so I checked the pros =
and cons and added language in this draft on the various aspects of 566 =
vs 466. Also checked if there is any current behavior for common =
software for retrying after any HTTP error code.

Spolier alert: 566 still seems better.it is not an error on the client =
part, It is the server that refuses to honor the connection.

This new draft has this added language:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-martin-retry-over-ipv6/

To be noted, I implemented this draft on my site: =
https://pacific.ipv6forum.com/ so that on the 6th of every month, IPv4 =
is not served. I had some implementation nits that prevented me from =
getting good logs. I hope this time I will have better logs, therefore =
better reports to share with folks.

In a couple of days, the site will show a banner announcing the IPv4 =
outage.

At the moment, I have not convinced a WG to formally =E2=80=9Chost=E2=80=9D=
 the discussion. I won=E2=80=99t be able to attend IETF Vienna as to =
gather more support, but appreciate if some folks could be a proxy.
