Well said.

While I do quite enjoy the occasional IPv6/IPv4 advocacy discussion, 
I would indeed prefer to keep *this* list a bit more focused on 
*address policy related* topics:

  - developments that have impact on RIPE address policy work
    (so the economic views would fall into this)

  - weak points or operational problems with the current RIPE policies

  - not-yet-formal ideas for improving RIPE policy

  - comments to ongoing RIPE policy proposals


"Whether or not IPv6 is technically superior to IPv4" is considered 
off-topic, as it has no real impact on our work: defining policies that 
help giving numbers to all those that need some, in a fair and impartial 
way.  We need policies for those that want IPv6 numbers, and we need
policies for those that want some of the remaining IPv4 numbers.

thanks.
