good point. there are "levels" of basic services.
i suspect that the network operations folks would want
to have working viable v6 (naming, timestamps, audit,
measurement) running -before- turning up production
"basic" service for the "user experience".
assuming that is the case, what things to these assembled
operators think are critical for operational stability
in bringing online a new address family?
Randy had a non-exaustive list at the last IEPG. To memory:
MIB, AAAA, DNS, NTP, SYSLOG, DHCP, RADIUS,
CALEA, etc.
