[ppml] 2005-1 status

I would agree that IPv6 PI space should be made available to anyone who
qualifies for IPv4 PI space.  2005-1 as presented at L.A. was a bit more
restrictive than that, with the 100,000 device requirement.

No, I don't think there is any working shim6 code.  However, as I've tried
to say before, I think shim6 will provide a multihoming solution to those
who've thus far not had one available.  IMO such a solution, if widely
implemented, would likely be better for small sites than trying to run
BGP.
