Is it an arbitrary set of possible values in 32 bits, or is it the uniqueness preserving allocation of sets of values in 32 bits for which the present, hierarchical routing protocol, is capable by ordinary means of routing? > 2) Do you support the principle of hierarchical aggregation (Routability)? As a present engineering practice or as an end in itself? At present, of course. In the abstract, no. > 3) Do you support the principle of uniqueness (Registration)? Hmm. Is this really a question about uniqueness of a set of 32 bit values, or is it a question about the 32 bit values and a tuple of other values, one or more properties evaluated jointly? I'd like to say "Yes", but I'm not sure if this is "Swat the Gnat" or Gnot. > 4) Do you support the goal of balancing these principles with each > other under the overarching principle of Stewardship? <Archaic_Government_Contractor_Hat="ON"> I'm certain that public allocation for public purposes is mandatory to implement when managing a government created resource. Allocation of a public resource by an entity exercising delegated rule making (aka "allocation") authority, for private use, must be according to delegation rule. </Archaic_Government_Contractor_Hat> Meta -- Some argue that what was transferred from the DoD to the NSF and then to a non-profit was an address block with two legal regimes, the "legacy allocations", and the "post-legacy allocations". The usual framework for finding some authorities for present allocation assumes this as an unqualified fact. I think the government interest in the resource is only stated in part by reference to pre-delegation and post-delegation rule making, and the fundamentals of sustainability, scalability, and public utility are not permanently constrained by any momentary rule.
