actually - Paul Francis has done the community a massive favor by making the argument for NAT as a viable tool strong enough that NAT and NAT-like technologies are pervasive. NAT is even used to "glue" v4 and v6 enclaves together. So it is too early to tell if IPv6-only will be the inevitable end game (in our lifetimes), or if NAT-enabled infrastructures will continue to be pervasive, leaving v4 enclaves running for longer than our childrens live. This policy proposal is one means to track rights to use a given resource, and it is not clear to me that it has to fit in the sole provence of a single address family (although it is clearly targeted for one of them as currently written) I guess that puts me in the camp of favoring this work. For the rest of the zelots (in either camp) - put down the retoric and quit trying to teach the pigs to sing. Its a waste of your time and it annoys the pigs. /bill On Fri, Nov 11, 2011 at 09:34:27AM +0000, Christian de Larrinaga wrote:
Lucky rich you to have such capacious v4 connectivity to be worrying about such downstream stuff. The rest of the world is starring at abyss of zero connectivity unless it deploys v6.
Solve that one.

Awesome, so you've solved the multi-homing issues with v6? The RA/DHCPv6 issues? (I'll just leave it at those three).
