Hi Gert,
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-li-tiptop-address-space/???
The latter has direct implications for the RIPE community,
Does it? How so?
"Someone needs to allocate a block" - that would be IANA - and "someone needs to manage it". That could be one of the RIRs (or IANA), but it won't really be affecting "the RIPE community".
What am I missing?
(Now, if you want the RIR communities to come up with a joint global proposal to guide IANA/NRO, this would be an interesting adventure - it might be much easier to just designate 4000::/3 on the IETF side, with clear-cut policies for that particular use case)
A first draft did ask IANA for this, however, I have been told that I was grossly inappropriate and that I had to ask the RIR communities. So here I am. We would like one RIR to manage this block. I suspect that if no one else volunteers, that ARIN will take up this mantle. Is that ok with RIPE? Tony
