David, Whilst I agree with what you are saying in that the RIPE community has identified issues, and that it is time to go into more detail to define a workable allocation policy. It would help if we had insight into what the 3 RIR thoughts are regarding these issues. I know that a new policy document will be published very shortly, and we should hopefully see what progress has been made towards a workable allocation policy. Personally I feel that it has taken far to long for a revised allocation policy to materialize, since review of the current document started in October 1999. Almost two years on we don't have new draft-policy we can even discuss let alone implement. Anyway I'll stop going on about it and look forward to reading the new draft :) Regards, Stuart > -----Original Message----- > From: David Kessens [mailto:david at IPRG.nokia.com] > Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2001 4:46 PM > To: BIDRON Alain BRX/DAP > Cc: Stephen Burley; lir-wg at ripe.net; ipv6-wg at ripe.net > Subject: Re: 90 IPv6 sub-TLA allocations made > > > > Alain, > > On Thu, Aug 09, 2001 at 04:45:24PM +0200, BIDRON Alain > BRX/DAP wrote: > > > > Do we really need to explore solutions again or do we need > a new Draft > > from the RIRs taking into account those proposals and the consensus > > expressed around, and able to be approved by the community ? > > I think that the problem description is quite clear.
