[arin-ppml] Demand for community networking

[Davis, Terry L]

Chris

Also for future thoughts in IPv6 space specifically, the need for permanent contiguous address spaces exist for other large organizations; below are a few of which are discussing it:

- International Civil Aviation Organization 
- Railway associations both in North America and Europe
- North American Power Companies
- Shipping companies
- City and County governments
- Fire Districts

Take care
Terry
