Wouldn't it be nice if we had a ULA bit or two to play with in the BGP announcements? Then everyone could define their own..

I know this is facetious and not a serious consideration, but it was an interesting thought..

more "practical" questions:
why should they be cheaper than PI block? do they take less administrative work form RIR? do they take less "space" in their databases?

in many RIRs you need to pay a "membership" fee and doing so you get the right to vote in their members meetings, if you get an ULA-C allocation, should you be considered a member? would you pay your membership fee to the RIR? again, why should this allocation be cheaper that a PI allocation?

Should ULA-C be published in the Whois database? what about reverse DNS

for them, should they be delegated or just reply a NXDOMAIN?

let's see. ula-c should be assigned and tracked by rirs. they should

have whois and in-addr.arpa. do remind me how they differ from pi

space. i keep forgetting.
