Hello,

I must admint, I'm really not up on the more subtle aspects of v6 addressing
nor have I read the drafts you posted, but I've never understood why we needed
a new set of RFC1918-like IPv6 space.  Wouldn't 0::10.0.0.0/104, 
0::192.168.0.0/112, and 0::172.16.0.0/116 (or whatever the appropriate masks 
would be) all function as v6 addresses with exactly the same properties at the 
current RFC1918 space?

Eric :)
