This applies to the > IP6.INT zone itself as well as to all child zones down the tree. I can see that removing the ip6.int delegation by 9/9/2004 would be considered agressive. But continuing to populating something that has been deprecated for another 6 months after there is an alternative doesn't make sense to me. I would assume this date to be ASAP. > Milestone 2.

While 9/9/2004 might be optimistic, just as Iljitsch points out, we will not have a RFC by then, June 6th 2006 seems to far away for me. End of the year or mid 2005 by the latest seems more realistic. - - kurtis - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 8.0.3 iQA/AwUBQP+YWqarNKXTPFCVEQJkqgCgounFuCktIjrjdhL8Gts0RFLQEaoAn2a6 hyzq7sTzmdbDxyEJYf81JZlV =pUeg -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
