Let me put it this way, what services do the IXP operators run outside
the mesh that absolutely requires IPv6 space and is considered
"critical", from the perspective of requiring globally routable space?
TLD DNS hosting comes to mind.
and why, if an ixp chooses to do this, is it any different than if anyone
else does? you want to do it, you get address space from your up-stream
or justify it to an rir just as any other lir does.

See mail to Gert, what worries me is that the IX services then are locked with the upstreams routing policy.
