My transit bus example is another example of SWIP difficulty.  Very hard 
to provide a street address to SWIP a bus when it is mobile 16 hours a 
day.

Current policy says SWIP every /64 or more, which is every network in v6.

I did a check here, and in v4, only 1% of customers have more than 8 ip's, 
and these customers are colocation customers who have a bunch of SSL 
sites.  These are grandfathered. New customers are told to use 1 IPv4 
address and SNI or better yet, IPv6, as we do not have the money to buy 
more V4.  We would rather use our v4 inventory for access customers.

Yes, it is just a few pieces of information for SWIP.  However, we do not 
have clerical staff to do it, because except for the SSL colocates, there 
never has been v4 SWIP's required here. Why should the policy state that 
just because we give each customer an assignment of v6, we must SWIP that 
same small customer that did not require SWIP in v4? (Welcome to IPv6, now 
fill out this form.....) Also noted is that the SWIP registration details 
without written permission might get us in trouble with the FCC over CPNI. 
As a WISP that has licensed microwave links, we do pay attention to Uncle 
Charlie.
