Re: status of bb-deployment [Re: IEEE 802.16 access technology + IPv6 deployment

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ <jordi.palet@consulintel.es>]

One more issue as part of this agreement was to further clarify in the
document that it was preferring native IPv6 support. So the cable part of
this document is only relevant to the case that you can't upgrade your cable
equipment to support IPv6 natively.

This has been done in the latest review, and this means that any new release
of DOCSIS or any other way to offer native IPv6 support doesn't require any
change to the current document status.

Regards,
Jordi
