Dino - 
 
  Presuming the EID block were issued, would the "EIDs are in f00/12" knob 
  be a site-local setting or would it be the default for EID architecture?
  One of interesting aspects of EID space is its overlap with IPv6 space, 
  and hence I was wondering if the long-term plans are for formally disjoint 
  spaces?  (Absent that, issuance of EID prefixes implies issuance of IPv6 
  space, which has some policy implications for the existing address 
  registry system, and is probably why several folks on the list keep 
  noting the need to liaison with the ISP community via the RIRs...)
