Folks,

FYI, we have updated two different IETF I-Ds related to the widespread
dropping of packets containing IPv6 extension headers.

* This one contains measurements results:
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-in-real-world-01>

* This other one explains why operators may filter such packets
intentionally:
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-packet-drops-01>

Your feedback is welcome! :-)

Thanks,
