8<-----------------
Propose a new WG to write a new IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling protocol
1. Based on the tunneling requirements write one new protocol
2. Work on two components of the solution:
   a) method to discover the tunnel end-point
   b) specification of the tunnel set-up protocol
----------------->8

There are three components to "Tunneling", the third is the actual
protocol, but you mention that in the first part, probably a rephrase
would be better.

Is this only about Tunneling IPv6 over something, or is it a generic
tunneling solution, the latter is called pptp and all the other variants
that already have existed for quite some time, next to that there are a
number of drafts which have been submitted for quite some time already
surrounding this subject and specifically for doing IPv6 over NAT-
crippled IPv4 hosts. I don't recall seeing a draft about Hexago's
v6udpv4 protocol though, not that it is complex but still.
