I agreed with Arnold, that networks should be able to muli-home without the 
feeling that they are breaking the Internet.

Of course that is sadly the case today.  So, as per Arnold's suggestion, I 
did some homework on an alternative solution, basically to IPv6.  This is 
only the first thoughts, just to get the main points across. Its is far from 
complete!

If you can spare the time, wander to,

and see what you think.
