Re: DoD IP Space

john,

my altzheimer's device tells me that some years back there was a
documented written agreement between arin and the dod along the lines of
dod getting a large swath of ipv6 space[0] in exchange for agreeing to
return[1] or otherwise put into public use a half dozen ipv4 /8s.

could you refresh my memory, e.g. with the document, please?  thanks.

[0] which they are still trying to figure out how to use; bit isn't half
    the internet in a similar pinch. :)

[1] since the dod probably did not get the space from arin, 'return' is
    probably not a good term.
