Our new registry can do this without any modification (check out 'whois
-h brind.isi.edu -t inet6num)', however we first need to figure out a
policy on who's getting (sub) NLAs, who's getting SLAs and how big the
(sub) NLAs will be.

Example (abbreviated) objects:

The 'mnt-by' attribute controls modification of the object itself, the
'mnt-lower' attribute controls *creation* of any new object directly
below itself in the address space tree and can thus be used to build a
delegation tree.

inet6num:  0::0/0
mnt-by:    IANA
mnt-lower: IANA

inet6num:  3FFE::0/16
mnt-by:    BobFink
mnt-lower: BobFink

inet6num:  3FFE:XXXX:YYYY::0/48
mnt-by:    BackBoneAdmin
mnt-lower: BackBoneAdmin

inet6num:  3FFE:XXXX:YYYY:ZZZZ::0/64
mnt-by:    SiteConnectedToBackBoneAdmin
mnt-lower: SiteConnectedToBackBoneAdmin
