2) can the ULA-C's be obtained at a nominal cost?
yes to all four.
Maybe I should have qualified 2) by asking how nominal is "nominal"?
ietf does not control the costs of this kind of operational activity. all
that an rfc can do is ask that the costs be nominal and direct iana to only
give address space out to rir's who have adopted policies consistent with
the specification. presumably iana will look to the rir's, which have strong
and open bottom-up governance models, to determine the meaning of "nominal".
To offer a prediction, I would suspect that, at least for ARIN,
registrants receiving only a single block of this type of address space
would fall into the bin that gets charged $100/year today. To me, that
is a reasonable price to pay for maintaining WHOIS and DNS registration
information. Of course, RIRs could always choose to use a different
cost structure for such assignments.
