PI is just a requirement from users. The infrustructure to support it needs fixing,
hence there is this discussion. Actually people asking for PI are more concerned
with a pool of IDs to name/control/monitor their items/things and less so with
routing. So split ID/locator. Give IDs to people. Build routing on locators. ISPs
will follow the new architecture. Opposing ISPs will be naturally replaced by new
willing ones. 

Thanks,
Peter
