Hi Antonio, You're totally right, but precisely because the text that you indicated, the right place for a possible standardization of addressing plans related to IoT, is the IETF, not even the RIRs. So, instead of this document, what the authors need to do is to come to IETF and write an Internet Draft in the appropriate WG. If that WG doesn't exist (just in case), they can call for a BoF to create one.

It’s out of scope. They should stick to co-ordination of E.164 numbers and X.25 addresses. IP addressing is primarily a matter for the RIRs. And other Internet-related fora like RIPE, NANOG, IETF, etc. There’s no role for the ITU in this at all. hi, about ITU's role, maybe it's worth reading this paper: RESOLUTION 101 (REV. BUSAN, 2014), Internet Protocol-based networks https://www.itu.int/en/action/internet/Documents/Resolution_101_pp14.pdf in that doc it's recalled that: 'the WSIS+10 High-Level Event (Geneva, 2014), in its Statement on the Implementation of WSIS Outcomes and the WSIS Vision Beyond 2015, determined that one of the priority areas to be addressed by the Post-2015 Development Agenda must be: "Encouraging the full deployment of IPv6 to ensure the long-term sustainability of the addressing space, including in light of future developments in the Internet of Things";' and resolves to: 'explore ways and means for greater collaboration and coordination between ITU and relevant organizations [Including, but not limited to, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the regional Internet registries (RIRs), the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), the Internet Society (ISOC) and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), on the basis of reciprocity.] involved in the development of IP-based networks and the future Internet, through cooperation agreements, as appropriate, in order to increase the role of ITU in Internet governance so as to ensure maximum benefits to the global community.' so, ITU is just following what the plenipotentiary conference (that is governments, mainly) decided in south korea four years ago. i'd prefer to continue stressing the technical aspects of Y.Pv6RefModel, instead of complaining about ITU's relevance in the topic. thank you -- antonio ********************************************** IPv4 is over Are you ready for the new Internet ? http://www.consulintel.es The IPv6 Company This electronic message contains information which may be privileged or confidential.
