IPv6 addresses for Exchange Points

Hiya all,

I disagree with this:

"There was consensus to assign a /64 to an isolated Exchange Point.
 It was further suggested to assign the agreed standard assignment size to
 a site (currently a /48) to a group of inter-connected Exchange Points."

This makes no sense to me. They are only going to come back and say they need
another network (test equipment, multicast, etc...), and then we have to
start carrying two/three/four... prefixes.

Even after 80 bits of the 128 bit address range have been wasted, I repeat
that IPv6 addresses are NOT IN SHORT SUPPLY and that Agregation and Prefix
conservation (with registration and documentation) should be our sole concern
except in completely crazy cases.

Or does someone think there may really be around 1,000,000,000,000,000
entities pretending to be internet exchanges ?

I think exchange point infrastructure - web servers,monitoring,test traffic
boxes, etc. need to be multihomed as well as globally unique.
