So picking up on Keith's point: Here's where we seem to be at. The joint working group chairs have put forth a proposal making obtaining a /64 for a peering mesh doable for any bona fide exchange point operator. The chairs put forth this interim policy proposal to these lists hoping to garner consensus or judge that consensus does not exist. The ensuing discussion, while not unuseful, does not appear (to me) to be helping the chairs and the wg membership from gauging the extent to which there is consensus for this interim policy proposal. So I ask: In lieu of any other policy changes, are you, as a RIPE member and participant in the LIR, EIX, and IPv6 WGs, in favor of the interim policy proposal for IPv6 address assignment policy for internet exchange points? /david
