[ppml] Revising Centrally Assigned ULA draft

[Kevin Kargel]

Yes, I agree that I may be living in a fantasy..  my point was just that
I am probably not alone in this fantasy world..  

I guess I am hoping that there will always be some aggregability (is
that a word?) when it comes to routing.  I emphatically agree that if
every end user gets a random tiny ip block and those blocks are
distributed chaotically  then routing will break for all but the biggest
iron routers.  In that scenario shortest path routing would be
unmanagable. 

Entropic portable micro-routes will just not work with current routing
schemes.
