I said so in the beginning: if the focus is on "anycast", I'll happy
to support the proposal.

As nobody is able to define what "criticial infrastructure" might be,
something more specific would be useful.  Like:

 - Anycast deployment
 - multiple distributed servers bring benefits for the whole community
 - due to protocol limitations this cannot be done using other approaches
   (like "put up 100 servers at various ISP networks, using PA space from
   those ISPs")

or something like this.
