Hi Brian,

So, why not simply deprecate SL for sites that have at least one
global prefix? Or am I too simple minded?
If you are too simple minded, then I am right there with you.

My making this exact suggestion is what started the 500+ message
mail storm two weeks ago that has received so much attention on
other lists...

That would then leave us with a couple of real problems to avoid NAT:
multihoming, and easy renumbering.
Yes, exactly.  And, it may be easier to determine ways to solve
these problems in a flat address space than it will be to solve the
myriad problems created by the global use of site-locals.

Also, please note that although it has been suggested as an element
of some solutions, the global use of site-locals doesn't actually
solve either of these problems.

Margaret
