RFC's are still Request For Comments, not Standards
You're plain wrong. Period. No matter what the title, RFC's are standards that are cast in concrete, until the time that they're superseded by a new RFC.
For that matter if someone would setup his/her/it's own RIR and started giving out IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, who is going to stop you?
Nobody is going to stop an idiot.
That it won't interoperate with what most of the people on this globe call 'the internet' is another question, but isn't that their problem?
It's both their problem and the problem of those who fall into their trap. And in the worst case the latter category may become a nuisance for all of 'the internet'. Piet
