As you may have noticed "M", located at Tokyo was assigned 2001:0DC3::/32 from APNIC last week, with the status "ASSIGNED PORTABLE".
Looking at http://www.root-servers.org, i see there are two root-servers located in the RIPE region that could get a /32 from RIPE, provided that RIPE would adopt the same policy than APNIC in this case:
- "I" at Stockholm, Sweden; - "K" at London, England.
I don't see why RIPE would have to adopt any specific policy here?
As far as i read it (RIPE-233), the RIPE policy for these cases is similar to APNIC's.
We *have* a "how to get IPv6 addresses for root name servers" policy, and it's already in place. I and K just have to apply for a block.
That was the point where i wanted to reach :-) ./Carlos "Networking is fun!" -------------- [http://www.ip6.fccn.pt] http://www.fccn.pt <cfriacas@fccn.pt>, CMF8-RIPE, CF596-ARIN, Wide Area Network Workgroup F.C.C.N. - Fundacao para a Computacao Cientifica Nacional fax: +351 218472167 "Internet is just routes (125953/461), naming (millions) and... people!"
