90 IPv6 sub-TLA allocations made

Hiya all,

There were also many concrete proposals in my mail of 8.2.2001 to these lists
and available for browsing at:
http://www.djp.net/ipv6/proposal.html
for those who do not wish to access the mail archives.

It's time this and the other proposals, which are all approximately in
agreement, were put into a revised allocation policy. We already have 166
routes in the IPv6 routing table. The sooner we adopt the revised allocation
policy the less likely it is the wrongly sized routes will need to hang around
for ever - Cisco memory is very expensive - IPv6 addresses are plentiful.

Cheers
Dave
