[ppml] [address-policy-wg] Those pesky ULAs again

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ]

You're right, it is a matter or wording. I should have said "IETF community
fails to reach consensus".

Note that I've not been instructed at all by the IETF or anything like that
on anything about this. I just saw the need for ULA-central and started
wondering what alternatives we have to bring it back. Nothing else.

What failed previously ... IESG can say, I only have hints, and points to
something not good in my opinion, but I don't want to talk here about
something that I don't know completely.

Regards,
Jordi
