Thanks for that reference. My estimate of 10M was based on some hand-waving
arguments about how many SMEs might seriously want to be multihomed; IMHO
most of them will be perfectly happy with PA addressing because they will
have anything that needs a stable address hosted anyway. Most SOHOs just don't
care, and get renumbered without knowing it after power fails etc. Homenet
takes this as a given, of course.
