Tony, address management and assignment policies are issues that affect all organisations to some degree or another. What you're describing here can be paraphrased as: - we've found out that address assignment management is hard, particularly given the constraints that we find ourselves in and the architecture we've chosen. As the IETF has lots of ipv6 space, it would make our lives much easier if we had an allocation large enough to embed our own persistent identifiers in the locator of the ipv6 address. The IETF's position is approximately: - an ip address consists of a topology locator and a network identifier. This definition does not acknowledge that persistent identifiers managed by other organisations are a legitimate part of the justification for bit space. > To continue the metaphor, the only reason for jumping down this Rabbit > Hole seems to be a "Mad Hatter's Tea Party" where you have a big empty > "table" that is the current address space and with a group down one end > of the table shouting "no room". If you look at this from the other point of view, if the IETF opens up ipv6 address space to allow third party persistent identifiers to become part of how you can justify bit space in an addressing allocation, where does that end? Other than in exhaustion of any addressing scheme that the ietf could ever devise? I hope you can appreciate that this isn't a mad hatter's tea party situation, but a consequence of a long-term decision made by rational actors who had the benefit of hindsight when making that choice.
