LFS and IPv6 goals

I'm wondering why these two are still goals for the current cycle. I think
it's safe to say that their intent has already been achieved (make Debian
generally work well with IPv6/LFS). What's left now is some specific bugs
tagged ipv6 or lfs, but these lists will probably never be completely
empty. Making a sprint on these subjects with etch and lenny was useful,
but now we've now reached the stage where bugs in these systems are valid
and should be fixed, but aren't fundamendamentally different from any
other set of bugs.

They aren't formulated in a SMART way, and it's not clear (to me at least)
what in the wheezy cycle specifically is expected to happen that needs
release goal status. My conclusion would be to just drop the goals:
they've already been successful.

Cheers,
Thijs
