[arin-ppml] ARIN-PPML Digest, Vol 75, Issue 8

Hi B
Something is always more important than something else. If ARIN's focus is
on IPv6 transition then I would suggest that ARIN is not likely to
complicate your life nor their own whilst continuing stewardship of that
which has come to an end.
Since we are a consensus driven model, the community has a pivotal role in
speeding up the transition process or at very least not restricting the push
towards IPv6.
Brett's suggests that the community will want to send out v4 patrols...but
to my way of thinking, why throw resources at slowing down the transition? I
don't see how policing run-out in this way can be regarded as positive
forward movement.
