Hi,

Thank you for this document, I think it is very important
to see the transition from the application level.

I have some questions (sorry if they have been
already answered):

1) why applications using only IPv6 (IPv6_V6ONLY
option) are not considered?

2) why the PMTU discovery, which *should* be implemented
in IPv6 nodes, is not mentioned? (it is not a requirement)
I m not sure, but it could be possible to implement a PMTU
discovery service at application level, so applications
could adapt their data flow to get better performance.


Maybe, it would be a good idea to include, in the
appendix section, a complete client/server example to
show: address conversion functions, the way to
know if the application is communicating using
IPv4 or IPv6 protocol, etc


Thank you in advance for your help.

Regards,

eva
