All instances of

IPV6 and ICMPV6

For example, in section 5:

   Legacy IPv6 applications/implementations using the Advanced Socket
   API [1] mechanisms, upon receiving Home Address destination options
   or Routing headers(Type 2), will discard the packet as per Sections
   4.2 and 4.4 of IPV6 Protocol [3] specification, respectively;
   otherwise, they should properly handle the Home Address destination
   option and the Routing Header Type 2 specified in this document.

It should say:

IPv6 and ICMPv6

For example, should say (also incorporating other corrections):

   Legacy IPv6 applications/implementations using the Advanced Socket
   API [1] mechanisms, upon receiving Home Address destination options
   or Routing headers (Type 2), will discard the packet as per Sections
   4.2 and 4.4 of the IPv6 Protocol [3] specification, respectively;
   otherwise, they should properly handle the Home Address destination
   option and the Routing Header Type 2 specified in this document.

Notes:

unusual capitalization
