Hi All,

We've posted a very small draft to remind of the existing work that has been done in the SPRING and MPLS WGs in the recent past for supporting IPv6.

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-filsfils-spring-sr-mpls-ipv6-control-plane/

While this would seem obvious to many, we realized that it might not be as evident for all since there are proposals being put forward for new source routing solutions for carrying mapping ids (labels or something new) for IPv6.

We hope this helps focus on the SR-MPLS and SRv6 milestones that the WG is targeting and for new proposals to justify their genuine benefits over existing mature solutions developed by the WG.

Thanks,
Ketan (on behalf of co-authors)
