* Michael Dillon:
If RIPE really and truly believes that IPv6 will become the future core protocol of the public Internet, then RIPE should allocate an IPv6 /32 to every RIPE member who has PI addresses.
No, if everyone believed that IPv6 is the future, policies would not matter much, and there would be little fighting. Everyone would jump through almost any hoop to get what they think they need. 8-) But this is not the case. I don't follow the v6 wars closely, but it appears that several promised improvements over v4 won't be delivered (look at the A6/bitlabel/DNAME deprecation, or even the protocol design optimized for forwarding implementations which now are being phased out).
