Hi,
after now almost 12 years using, working and teaching[1] IPv6 I've come to the conclusion that IPv6 is a mistake and will not work.
Therefore the RIPE IPv6 WG should be disbanded and replaced with a new WG that MUST investigate all possible solutions to artificially prolong the live of IPv4 till the day a new successor for IPv4 is created and implemented!
Dear Jens, I would like to encourage you to submit a proposal to RIPE PC for a BoF that would discuss your topic. I understand that there is no real focused place at RIPE to discuss IPv4 right now (well, there is plenary, but that's more generic) and if you would like to discuss whatever you wish around extending IPv4 - then a BoF would be the right way to go. If you get enough like-minded people to the BoF and present the usefulness of more focused IPv4-enhancement work to the community at closing plenary - then you might get a Task Force or even a Working Group with a goal of discussing and extending IPv4 - well, who knows, right? :) However, I have a feeling that the topic of this working group is IPv6 and I would love to see this WG work and discussion to be focused on the IPv6 topic and its charter. My $.2 worth ;) With best regards, Jan Zorz (no hats ;) )
