Daniel,

Have you or someone from RIPE participated on the IPng mailing list?

Have you or someone from RIPE participated in the IPng WG meetings at
the last three IETF meetings?

The reason I ask is because we have done technical analysis on this and
have had much discussion.  

I think discussing the reason for going with a 13bit TLA needs to be
brought out more and doing and checking that is prudent.  But the
architecture and reasoning has had many technical discussions.  I would
like to understand as a WG member if you or RIPE did not agree with the
results (which I would think we would have heard before now) or if you
or RIPE have not been part of these open public discussions.  It could
be we need to point to the mail archives and the GSE reasoning paper done 
by Thomas Narten, Lixia Zhang, et al from whence this essential proposal
came from based on a WG meeting in Mountain View about a year ago?

I am trying to understand if this is an educational effort on our part
as a WG group?

thanks
/jim
