I have to oppose this for the simple logic: 1) we want to kill 6bone as soon as possible 2) for these prefixes to be useful, they have to implemented 3) withdrawing implementations takes a long time. So, giving out 6bone pTLAs would probably just lead to continuation of the 6bone mess. There is already a better process in place for something like this -- for example the experimental allocations: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ipv6policy.html#experiment-assignments -- Pekka Savola "You each name yourselves king, yet the Netcore Oy kingdom bleeds."
