	I agree perry@piermont.com's opinion, too.

	The IPv6 is very happy because many of IPv6 users are assigned IP
	address, so the users need not use IP (header) rewriting
	software, such like NAT, NAPT, or IP masquerade.

	sTLA assignment rule assigns IPv6 assigner to limited sites.
	We are now wanted IPv6 assigner near our site, or if we can not
	get such site, one of our solution is "we become assigner".
	That rules are reject that solution.

	IPv6 Network become generalize, maybe that rule will work. But
	start of construct and use IPv6 network, many of the interested
	person or volunteer team can get sTLA and assign IPv6 address many 
	users.

	We need IPv6 users first. And now we can get IPv6 protocol stack
	easily. So next step is many of users get IPv6 address easily.

	Sorry for my poor English.
	Thanks
