[ipv6-wg] contents of ipv6-wg Digest, Vol 135, Issue 10

Hi,

Yup yup, l I was being generous, no use whinging about how every new
architecture just grabbed easiest from what they googled, there’s a lot of
new space and  enterprises are looking for help. (At least some in the
organisations who are looking at forecasting future projects)

it’s a great opportunity to start renewed. Easiest may be to not agonise
over how much legacy to bring forward and just start fresh and make the old
have to update  Imho

RIPE, while I believe their position is they are not the enforcers for
every implementor or and don’t fall subject to new eu critical
infrastructure regulation as global, still hold a lot of advisory kudos in
this space.

Will be an interesting study / paper.
