Speaking only for myself...



I have recently heard rumbles that this IPv6 allocation policy is STILL a
topic of intense discussion within the IESG/IAB -- not at all the done deal
that many of us might have assumed.

With that in mind, I would respectfully suggest that we (ARIN) consider
deferring action to give things time to sort themselves out.
