yep, I agree. The last thing I need at a RIPE meeting is to have to spend additional time figuring out how the to get the net working. When attending a RIPE meeting I still need to carry on with normal work, it is not a vacation.

Additionally, experiments are better done in controlled situations where one actually has the means to address the findings.

BTW, IPv6 ought to continue to be considered as a production service on the RIPE network, just in case.
