[AfriNIC-rpd] Pushing IPv6

[Douglas Onyango]

Mark,
If i get you right, then this policy would be:-
1. Requiring Members applying for v4 to apply for and be
allocated/assigned v6 blocks as well
2. Requiring members to (somehow) demonstrate usage of their v6 blocks.

Borrowing from my experience authoring the IPv4 Softlanding Policy,
where similar ideas were advanced, i would say this would be
"dictating to Members how to run their networks..." - To use the exact
words used at the time.

Now, unless the community's take on this has changed, I remember these
points bringing alot of contention to the said Policy with the only
option being for us to remove the whole tying v4
allocation/assignment/usage to v6 (or the reverse) out of the Policy.

So going  by the Community's feel at the time (which i doubt has
changed much), i wouldn't say this makes sense....But maybe i am wrong
on the community's perspective.

Regards,

learned in the first was a joke.
