I'm not trying to get anything under the RADAR.  Yes, I want to see us
modify the policy to cover allocations and assignments, much as the
current IPv4 policy does.  However, I'm not suggesting it under the RADAR,
I've been quite up front about it.  ULA is an attempt to slide something
under the radar, and, that is one of the reasons I have opposed it.

Even if the RIRs started working on a draft now (which I think is a good 
idea),
it would be at least a year before anything real happened on it.  As such, I
think there will be no difficulty incorporating the output of Tony's BOF
into such policy well before it was adopted.
