While I understand your argument, I do not consider the non-availability of IPv6 PI space an *error*. (Speaking for myself). It means re-thinking some established ways to do things - things that have caused large problems in the past, and might not have been an overly good idea to start with.

Well, but those "established ways of doing things" may also happen to be exactly why we could deploy IPv4 in the first place, and their absense have provably hampered IPv6 deployment. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
