I'm involved in IPv6 transition planning for NATO from a network architectural perspective.)! Yes I've talking about the "200 customer rule" before. It is all in the definition of a customer. To summarise, NATO has a service provisioning agency which could become a LIR. It serves to NATO Agencies and NATO operations. 200 customers requires creativity in defining what a customer is but it can be done. And I've tested that concept with Leo Vegoda at the time by submitting a proforma initial allocation request. Leo felt happy enough about it at the time. So that gave me a warm feeling that this bit of the IPv6 transition plan will fly (or can be made to fly). Indeed NATO's service provisioning agency would fit best into a LIR role but it could also work with PI space if it was provisioned in a *useful* way. (I won't go into the details of the NATO networks and potential links via or to the Internet but I do not foresee routing issues there).
