Hi Gert,
I think what Joao was suggesting was that if the nameserver had been in NASA's v6 block, then rapid renumbering would have made it viable to demand the whole block back from NASA when the nameserver was shutdown. While this is nice in theory, I tend to agree with Randy that it is not very likely in reality for a huge organisation like NASA.
Actually, not quite. I don't believe in IPv6 rapid renumbering. If you allow people to put other services in an address block that block will always be out there, no one will be able to reclaim it (then again I once won the lottery, so strange things do happen). Joao
Regards,
Guy
