From RFC3879:

Quote
Abstract

   This document describes the issues surrounding the use of IPv6 site-
   local unicast addresses in their original form, and formally
   deprecates them
.  This deprecation does not prevent their continued
   use until a replacement has been standardized and implemented.

what u mean? yes or no?
i was asking about "This deprecation does not prevent their continued
   use until a replacement has been standardized and implemented.", is there any formally abolish?

"formally deprecates" means not recommanded, "formally abolish" means there is no site-local address type which not routeble on internet anymore.

rfc3879 born in 2004, i only want to know some surely information in this 10 years and what u talked about...
