I am strongly in favour of continuing.
The reverse map provides an authority model which closely matches the
real authority for IP addresses. Is is therefore *VERY* useful for locating
keying information for a node.
HIP and IPsec is using this *NOW* in IPv4.
HIPv6 is very likely to use this.
Some people have suggested HIP as a base for multihoming.
Yes, there are issues with how to get information into the reverse map
given IPv6 auto-configuration.
I have ideas on this, but they are not appropriate for this WG.
