Bill,

Your point about aggregation is the cart before the horse is well taken.
 Andrew Dul, had a similar point, and suggested rewrite adding something
about the state of technology.  I think his rewrite is is more universal in
that it does not specifically call out BGP.  Also your rewrite loses the
importance of the numbers being unique, and properly documented.

I hope you will find Andrew's rewrite sufficient.

WRT sustainability as opposed to conservation, could you please expand.  I
don't think i quit grasped your point.

I used the word conservation because that is the word in RFC-2050.  We get
our principles of efficient use out of RFC-2050 section on conservation.

I hope people are not confusing the old RFC-2050 definition of conservation
with the recent attempts of soft landing, and making IPv4 last longer.

I was hoping to have a very clear line from the current draft to RFC-2050,
and tried to carry those principles forward and use much of the same
language.

If this is confusion WRT the meaning of "conservation" then maybe we need a
paragraph define what we do and don't mean by conservation?
