[address-policy-wg] 2016-03 New Version and Impact Analysis Published (Locking Down the Final /8 Policy)

Hi,

Over the years I saw many "haters" which are against this business. I
didn't invent it and the real money goes to the ones that got the resources
for "free" and then seek to make a fortune out of it. There were people in
the first years telling me that this business is illegal. Well, I guess
this is something that all pioneers have to deal with.

If I would moderate the list I would remove people that make such
affirmations. I do hope that every sane person over here can accept
criticism. I lived under the communist time and I know how it is when a
leader says something wrong but he believes is right and a bunch of
penguins just sit in the room and applause.

Let's get to reason and sanity (hopefull we all can do that). For the
moment we have to discuss the current policies and then come up with some
better ones as many people complain about the current situation.

So we have to discuss a policy that is suppose to organize things but it
inserts important changes and a policy which is against the interest of
most of the voices around here. In my opinion they need to get dropped and
we need to take one issue at a time and figure out how to fix it.

Again, I'm like any of you and definitely not against any single person.
Obviously there are people which I like and people which I dislike. But
let's be civil and discuss ideas not people as nobody is perfect but we
have enough capable brains among us to produce good ideas that would
benefit every honest member of the community.

Let's stop focusing on policies "against" and try to do things that move
things forward in a positive way. Everybody can figure out what their goal
are but (maybe it's unfortunate) our society is mostly driven and blinded
by profit. That's how is it and we can't ignore it. IPv6 makes companies
rich, probably more than IPv4 does. People seeking "world peace" are a
great asset to our world but I'm afraid that won't happen during our
lifetime.

Enjoy Madrid, have fun, and try to treat life in a bit more positive way.
Hate will never bring anything postive, not even to the hater.

Ciprian
