RIRs are More Interested in Selling NEW than Pre-Owned?
RIRs are More Interested in Selling NEW than Pre-Owned? It is a myth that IPv4 is "out of space". It has the same space it started with if 32-bits are routed. More bits can easily be used for routing purposes before switching to IPv6. People seem to be happy with 34 bits, one extra bit at each end. 1+32+1 RIRs may not like the reality of Selling Pre-Owned "Vehicles" There are many problems out there. http://www.iblocklist.com/lists.php The push to Sell Brand New Virgin IPv6 Space makes RIR life easy. Easy money.

At least Jim is being nice and sourcing from the same email consistently. Should be easy to filter his address from the list. But just to be safe, should probably filter anything with a reference to ipv3, ipv5, ipv7, ipv8, and any other cockamamie address schemes... ;) Stefan Fouant, CISSP, JNCIEx2 www.shortestpathfirst.net GPG Key ID: 0xB5E3803D

It's interesting to see that people can be this reality-challenged and still ruled competent to manage their own affairs. But I'll let the list admins make the call on this one.
