Why don't you? :) I'll just re-iterate an earlier point I made in this thread: If a routing protocol can't scale in the core, it's either applied wrong or there is a problem with the protocol design itself. I don't think taxing people away is a good sustainable/stable approach to solving the problem of the routing protocol in question. In the context of a potential (not certain) explosion of *both* IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes in the BGP DFZ's, LISP or other specific solutions to the expensive core *may* become necessary. My view is that *if* this explosion comes, it does so fully regardless of RIPE's PI/PA IPv6 policies. Regards, Martin
