I'm confident that the draft we will take to WGLC will make it clear to everyone that IETF is not making any recommendation about whether IPv6 residential gateways should or should not have Simple Security capabilities enabled in their DEFAULT modal configuration.  What it will say is that *if* a gateway has Simple Security capabilities, then here is what applications may expect those capabilities to be if our recommendations are followed by gateway vendors.

I'm quite comfortable with this outcome to our efforts.  I'll be posting the -10 revision on Friday before I return home to San Francisco.  If anyone has new technical issues to bring to the working group, then you are invited to surface them now.
