I've finally convinced $DAYJOB to deploy IPv6.  Justification for the
IP space is easy, however the truth is that a /64 is more than we need
in all locations. However the last I heard was that you can't
effectively announce anything smaller than a /48.  Is this still true?

Is this likely to change in the immediate future, or do I need to ask
for a /44?


/48 is the new /24
