RE: Open issues list? [Re: New (-02) version of IPv6 CPE Router draft is available for review]

We missed the fact that some LAN interfaces may be USB or some new LAN
port types.

The sentence at the end of section 1, Introduction, which reads, "Each
LAN interface is Ethernet encapsulated," should be elided altogether.
