Hi,

while the thread itself is pretty ridiculous, it points out one important
thing:

All those networks (and all others that I have not quoted) do not use
6bone address space, and do not fall under the "6bone rules".

So far, there are no universally accepted rules yet for announcement 
(or not) of more-specific prefixes from 2001:: space.  Some think it's
a good idea to overcome the multihoming issue, others stick to the
"get an /48s from each upstream" paradigm, and yet others recommend 
to get an own sTLA for "important" multihomed networks.

This isn't something which can be easily solved on *this* list, which 
is the 6bone-list and by convention doesn't really touch RIR space policy.
