I'm very much oppossed to /56 because it's still more than most users  
need. In and of itself that doesn't matter, but it's also less than  
what some users need. This creates the situation where people try to  
make do with a /56, find out that they need a /48 after all (all  
those /64 ptps...) and have to renumber. I.e., /56 provides too much  
potential for shooting yourself in the foot.

        ah... so is there the admission that renumbering in IPv6
        is pretty much a myth?
