If so, please > bring them up! The policy makes no statements about large, multi-national end-users who want/need to obtain space. The IPv6 multi-prefix addressing multi-homing mechanism specified in the standards RFC's is too onerous for these large end-users to implement. Through various discussions in multi6 and other mailing lists, I saw a rough consensus that large multi-national entities might expect to receive space through the RIR's as LIR's. The challenge: how to define a "large multi-national end-user" such that it would embody the spirit of what we're trying to accomplish. /cah -- Craig A.
