Description of Working Group:

1. Specify the tools and mechanisms that might be used for transition 
to
   IPv6.

2. Write documents outlining how the various transition tools and 
   mechanisms might apply to various scenarios for a transition to 
IPv6.

3. Coordinate with the IPv6 6bone testbed, operating under the IPv6 
   Testing Address Allocation allocated in Experimental RFC 2471, to 
   foster the development, testing, and deployment of IPv6.

4. Coordinate appropriately with other IPv6 related IETF activities and
   activities in other organizations.

 Goals and Milestones:
