Hi all,
A slight comments on draft-ietf-shim6-failure-detection-06.txt

-Page6
      Note 2: In theory, it would also be possible for hosts to learn
      about routing failures for a particular selected source prefix, if
      only suitable protocols for this purpose existed.  Some proposals
      in this space have been made, see, for instance
      [I-D.bagnulo-shim6-addr-selection] and
      [I-D.huitema-multi6-addr-selection], but none have been
      standardized to date.

This paragraph shows [I-D.bagnulo-shim6-addr-selection] and 
[I-D.huitema-multi6-addr-selection] are two unstandardized proposals for 
local routing  failure detection.
Then, I think the neighbour unreachability detection in [RFC2461] MAY be 
a standardized proposal for this purpose.
Right?

Cheers,
Deguang
