[address-policy-wg] Policy proposal: #alpha: TLD Anycast Allocation Policy

OK, so I guess my point altogether is that I dislike special-ness.

There seems to be agreement that DNS anycasting is here to stay so the 
only point of contention is the size of the prefix. Using longer 
prefixes does not add much to the conservation and introduces more 
exceptions.
Even if other RIRs are doing /48s already why would introducing an 
additional chunk of swamp space with the potential for more likely 
large scale failure be of any benefit?
If people agree with assigning the addresses for this purpose, which 
seems to be the case, just issue a standard allocation and be done.

Regarding the issue of flap damp(en)ing parameters, I think we should 
really revisit the flap damp(en)ing recommendations again at RIPE 50.

PS: regarding entries in the routing table and the pollution it causes, 
keep an eye on RFCs coming soon.

PS: regarding the use of "wrong DNS software", the TLD operator is 
running *SERVERS* and providing services to resolvers/users. The best 
they can do is provide as good a service as they can to their 
consumers, not preach to them about them running the wrong client side 
software.
