Who would know more about this? I'm in the process of writing down some 
startup thoughts about how we can (and maybe should) implement IPv6 here 
where I work. It's a closed national network where security is prio 1 and 
we might also have to work/connect to other network of the same type in 
other countries... in short, we need to be globaly unique so we actually 
need that registrary to be there:)
