As Barbara points out (correctly, imo), the entire discussion is based on FUD and it's about time that this working group acknowledged this. > History does tell us that ISPs give out very long prefixes even when > they do not need to. Addressing scarcity has been an issue since before we had functional or widespread access services. Also, provisioning mechanisms in the early days of access services were bereft of functionality, which meant that doing anything other than a single ipv4 statically-assigned /32 was troublesome and non-scalable. There's never been a period where commodity ipv4 access products were available and where ipv4 addresses weren't a scarce resource, and scarcity has been the primary driver of addressing assignment policies since commodification of internet access services. So this line of argument is not valid because there isn't a scarcity of ipv6 addressing resources. Nick
