Decision: Accept
Action: Add to section 2.6

 If the destination address is the 255.255.255.255 broadcast address
or a link-local multicast address, then the host may use either its
link-local source address or a routable address, as appropriate. If
the destination address is a multicast address with scope larger than
link-local then the host SHOULD use an appropriate routable source
address, if available, or its link-local source address otherwise.

Note: This may not be necessary after the resolution of LL23.
      We leave this to the document editor's discretion.

Those that commented on this issue supported excepting it.
