It is completely unacceptable to me to use 1/32 of the IP6 address space
for NSAPs.  Please present a scheme which uses only 1e-8 or less
(minimum 24-bit prefix).  Also, please present a plan whereby NSAPs will
be phased out, and old ISO sites converted to IP6.  This should be a
separate draft from the IP4 to 6 transition.

Note that IPv4 uses only 1e-28.  There are a minor fraction of the NSAP
sites compared to IP4 sites.  The address allocation SHOULD be
proportional.
