Hi Masataka,
IETF can do nothing unless ISPs of RIPE and other RIRs accept the restriction that only very large ISPs can have their own global routing table entries and address spaces of other ISPs must be delegated from those of the very large ISPs.
You don't make sense. We're not talking about ISPs here, we're talking about end users. And the IETF can define standards for that.
The ISP vs end user distinction is very fuzzy. Even the RIPE policy documents don't use the terms consistently. And in most contexts, the term "ISP" includes companies mainly providing web and mail hosting services. -- Florian Weimer <fweimer@bfk.de> BFK edv-consulting GmbH http://www.bfk.de/ Kriegsstraße 100 tel: +49-721-96201-1 D-76133 Karlsruhe fax: +49-721-96201-99
