Re: For review: version 3 of IPv6 dynamic dns support

[Pavel Simerda <psimerda redhat com>]

I just realized that your patch will both conflict with modifications
in my branch and improve it at the same time. I had plans to improve
DHCPv6 configuration as a whole.

I kindly ask Dan and others to let me coordinate with Gene and integrate
mine and his patches together.

Thanks in advance,

Pavel
