I also don't understand the whole decision circling back, endlessly, to restrictive policies when nobody actually seems to want IPv6 (assuming this is still what we're talking about)
The majority of those who post on the RIPE mailing lists deeply fear that there is a real demand for IPv6, so much that their routers are overloaded. I don't know why.
My understanding is that the IPv4 Internet failed to limit the size of DFZ that BGP convergence is taking prphibitively long time for mission critical applications. Moreover, considering bandwidth requirement for the next 5 or 10 years, I don't think backbone routers can have huge routing tables. Masataka Ohta
