Re: IPv6 allocatin (was Re: ARIN Policy on IP-based Web Hosting)

Maybe they should have used internet2 as a mechanism of getting people
moved to ipv6 by requiring IPv6 only on internet2.  As the migration to
internet2 continues, this sould also force migration to IPv6.  Vendors
who want to sell to customer on internet2 would have to support IPv6.
Organizations that have completed the move to internet2 would be given
new space in IPv6 and have to return any IPv4 space as part of the move.

Might seem a little draconian, but might also get the conversoin done
with less disruption overall.
