Dear Chair, I was not aware of the decision.

Thanks, I can only submit contribution about IPv6-over-ETHCS (maybe
section in the full IPv6-IPv4 document). I can not write text about
IPv4-over-ETHCS for several reasons. I have implemented IPv6 not IPv4.
IPv4 does not have stringent requirements with respect to the
link-layer supporting multicast. IPv4 requires link-layer to be
broadcast capable, not multicast.
I will agree with the group's decisions.
