[arin-discuss] Size Categories for IPv6.

[Mikel Kline]

Why not price the IPv6 addresses on a flat fee per block basis?  I would
even let you choose the fee and the size of the block that serves as the
standard cost basis.  Dividing the address space per fee makes a pretty
interesting cost curve that just doesn't seem right.
