Enhance CG-NAT Re: V6 still not supported

Hi, Bill:

0)    Thanks for bringing up the NANOG posting guideline. We now have 
something tangible to discuss.

1)    Section 6. looks most relevant. So, I copy and paste it below for 
our discussion:

     A.    6.1.1. "... > relevant excerpt 1   response to excerpt 1 ... 
    ":    This seems to be what I have been doing, except maybe how to 
interpret the keyword "excerpt". Perhaps you are expecting me to cite 
more text from the message that I am responding to, such as a complete 
paragraph, instead of only a short phrase or two? If so, I certainly 
will be glad to do so.

     B.    On the other hand, the leading sentence "When posting to the 
NANOG list please avoid: Top-posting, i.e., putting your reply right on 
top of the message you're responding to,  ...   " seems to discourage 
threading the messages (keeping a long tail of the earlier texts)?

     Perhaps there is some kind of optimal trade-off between how much 
each of these two should be included in a message?

2)    The two URLs are kind of odd:

     A.    The first URL led me to a blank webpage.

     B.    The second URL led me to a list of Q&A's that seem to be more 
humorous than instructive.

***************
*6. Posting Conventions*

 1. *Format*
    When posting to the NANOG list please avoid:
     1. Top-posting, i.e., putting your reply right on top of the
        message you're responding to, rather than quoting and responding
        as follows: > relevant excerpt 1
        response to excerpt
         > relevant excerpt 2
        response to excerpt
         > relevant excerpt 3
        response to excerpt
     2. Using non-standard methods of quoting prior text;
     3. Failing to quote, or to snip, as appropriate;
     4. Sending in HTML or other non-standard attachment formats;
     5. Starting or participating in flame wars.
    The linux-kernel mailing list FAQ provides detailed instructions
    for* quoting prior text*:

    "Dear Emily Postnews" at
    http://www.templetons.com/brad/emily.html makes lots of good
    suggestions about *signatures* and other items of interest.

Please review and advise.
