Understood.

I would agree that my alternate language doesn't impose implementation
requirements: I think that's actually the main benefit over 125, but we
obviously disagree there, so I won't rehash the arguments.

I believe my suggestions (mainly re: removing the transfer restrictions)
have already been incorporated into Chris's latest draft.  I no longer have
a strong objection to 125 (as I did to the first versions), but I am still
unconvinced that forcing anyone to implement IPv6 before they're ready is in
the best interests of the community.
