I have some comments on the proposal as follows:

1.	It is very unnecessarily complex.
2.	Do you really think that the required 6to4 functionality can be
	widely enough deployed in less than 4 months?
3.	This would make the 6to4 address range a permanent encampment
	of legacy v4 holders and preserve all of the issues related to the  
swamp.
	We should not give up on the v6 transition as an opportunity to  
drain the
	swamp.  Enshrining the swamp in a permanent IPv6 map is
	counter-productive.
4.	This proposal (and 6to4 in general) appear to ignore what happens
	when sites have IPv4 addresses, native IPv6 connectivity, but, no
	longer have native IPv4 connectivity.

I oppose the proposal as written.
