Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document describes how the zone identifier of an IPv6 scoped
   address, defined in the IPv6 Scoped Address Architecture (RFC 4007),
   should be entered into a user interface.  It obsoletes RFC 6874 and
   updates RFC 4007, RFC 7622 and RFC 8089.

Discussion Venue

   This note is to be removed before publishing as an RFC.

   (ipv6@ietf.org), which is archived at

Working Group Summary

   This document is the outcome of a previous attempt and addressing
   IPv6 link-local addresses in URIs.  This time, the consensus extends
   to include several others outside the IETF community (specifically
   some web folks).

Document Quality

   This document deprecates zone syntax in web URLs, for where there
   already essentially no support.
