[6bone] very drafty draft on 6bone routing mess

[Pekka Savola]

Comments are welcome, as always.  I'll send this to internet-drafts@ in a 
couple of days in any case.

Perhaps I should summarize (Braveheart voice): "We need the transits". And
what is more, we need transits that have good policies, and will be
significant enough to force the pTLA/sTLA's they give service to into
something sane (to drop 95% of those tunnels etc.).
