Rather than engage in a long discussion to arrive where we already are, I would ask you to allow me to point you to http://www.ripe.net/cgi-bin/webiprequest/webiprequest.cgi section "request overview template" and settle the issue of NATs and look into making what we have even better. (as a personal opinion, raising awareness of IPv6 is probably a good thing. Seeing people working with it and fixing the rough edges in the technology before widespread deployment would be a great thing to see). Cheers, Joao At 10:28 +0200 16/5/02, Gert Doering wrote:

Personaly I feel it is a pity that this has turned into a "please use NAT".
It has NOT. The RIPE185-bis document is clear on this.
Therefore, I am proposing to change this policy into:
- stop asking this question - stop promoting NAT
Any views on this ?
I seriously think that adding a second question "have you considered IPv6" (if only to raise awareness "IPv6 is here to stay") might be a good thing.
