Hello DHCPv6'ers,
I have made an individual submission of an Internet-Draft which describes an XML schema for configuration of DHCPv6 servers.  Many of us may remember a vaguely similar effort that we worked on in the late 1990's for a common LDAP schema for configuration (and lease data, as I recall) for DHCPv4 servers. From those discussions, I understand the problems associated with a common configuration schema which tends to infringe directly upon implementation details.  Although I hope to avoid those sticky problems again, I would still welcome comments on this draft, and to consider if the WG should take this as an action item.

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-rabil-dhc-dhcpv6-xmlconfig-00.txt

An open-source implementation of a stateless DHCPv6 server which implements the XML configuration schema defined in this draft is available at:
