2010::/16 filtering

[Patricio Latini]

I thinks that in the inital stage of the 6to4 transalations each pTLA or sub
TLA should use a subnet his own prefix to do the tests..
and in a future all of us could adopt the common prefix to do the
translation. i think that kind of decitions should be talked by all the
6bone members.
