What's the other half of the work?

How exactly did you intend to deploy A6?

I agree (if that is what you're saying) that it's a shame that all  
the work on tools that would have made renumbering easier has been  
abandoned, but I'm not aware of any parts of the operational world  
asking for easier renumbering, they want to avoid renumbering at  
pretty much all costs.

Sure, complain about what the IETF is doing wrong TODAY. Complaining  
about what they did wrong a decade ago isn't going to do all that  
much good.
