And to add to this, from the beginning, none of the LISP authors felt  
that LISP was the ultimate long-term solution.

So, should the short-term map-n-encap solution be for IPv4 and the  
long-term solution be for IPv6 only? That would depart from the  
thought of having one solution for both address-families.

Could we agree that one map-n-encap solution for both IPv4 and IPv6 be  
a short-term solution while we work on a long-term solution for IPv6- 
only?
