Any entity with a free will is entitled to a part of IPv6 space free of charge. And yes we will need enough addresses pointing to every cell in a human body. Wether current policies and architecture support it and if such space will be used any time soon is another question under discussion, e.g. RAM, etc. Thanks, Peter --- Jeroen Massar <jeroen at unfix.org> wrote: > Alain Patrick AINA wrote: > > On Friday 22 June 2007 14:18:25 Jeroen Massar wrote: > > > >> Alain Patrick AINA wrote: > >>> This does not meet the requirements above.
