Exactly.  It is time to provide IPv6 addresses.

I also now agree with IAB response to the previous paper I looked at
that /29 should be allocated for the sub-TLA's. 

And all the quantity reqs for startup and references at least need to be
tripled.

Also though I support conservation, initially we need to make sure
efforts like 6REN do not have to jump thru major hoops to get started,
which are good for Ipv6 and a real need for 6REN customers outside of
the U.S.

WHere will this paper be discussed at Minneapolis?  Or will it not and
just email?
