Hi Mailinglist-Members,

I am pretty new on this list, so I first wave a "Hello" into the
round... and immediately continue to ask the question, which led me to
subscribing to this list. Apologies if I chose the wrong list, please
advise me, where to put my question in this case.

I work as consultant and already accompanied several IPv6 roll-outs
from the first idea "we want V6" until production. While
enterprise-setups are mostly /32 or less IPs, I see more and more
rollouts which need much bigger space.

At least in RIPE-Region, each LIR can receive a /29 without any
justification. And here is where my problem starts. While writing
documentation and addressing-plans before requesting the actual prefix
at the appropriate RIR, I'm used to use 2001:db8::/32 as defined in
RFC3849. But what to do for bigger nets (lower bitmasks)?

Before starting to push the ball on the field by writing a proposal,
I'd be happy to hear if there is support in the community for updating
this rfc and officially define a bigger prefix for documentation.

As said, if I chose the wrong mailinglist or simply started bringing
my idea into the community in a wrong way, any advise and comment is
appreciated. I have no experience with the processes at ietf yet.

Best regards and thanks
