Hi,

That sentence got messed up. Splitting the two parts of what I wanted to say:

> But there MUST be room for people to use use something else than a /64. While it's good to have a default size that works well, forcing /64 though people's throat when they know what they are doing and need something else

+is bad, and non-/64 networks

> must remain possible. (this is both me speaking as an IPv6 teacher and as a network engineer :)

Cheers,
Sander
