I am curious how LIRs that employ 6RD today plan to motivate their need for the 15 extra /32:s they would be allocated following the example above, with the /28-instead-of-/32, once the 6RD transition phase is complete. IIRC RIPE are currently spacing their /32 assignments on a /29 basis. Eg, anticimex at hsa:~$ for i in `seq 0 8`; do whois 2a02:9a$i::/32 | egrep '(inet6num|netname)' ; done inet6num: 2a02:9a0::/32 netname: SE-SCS-20090203 inet6num: 2a00::/12 netname: EU-ZZ-2A00 [...] inet6num: 2a02:9a8::/32 netname: IT-SPIN-20090204 I guess that it would be trivial to fall back to the first /32, or whatever less-than-6RD-inflated prefix you had before, once the transition is over, as long as the LIR plans ahead accordingly.
