Re: DoD IP Space

[Fred Baker <fredbaker.ietf () gmail com>]

I recently had a discussion with an Asian ISP that was asking the IETF to PLEASE re-declare DoD space to be private 
space so that they could use it. This particular ISP uses IPv6 extensively (a lot of their services are in fact 
IPv6-only) but has trouble with its enterprise customers. Frankly, enterprise use of IPv6 is a problem; they seem to 
push back pretty hard against using IPv6.

I find this thread highly appropriate.
