There's two very vocal persons opposing it and a much larger number of

(And I second everything Lorenzo, Randy and Cameron said - there's 
theoretical possibilities, and real world.  6to4 fails the real-world
test.  Get over it, instead of attacking people that run real-world

 I have a vested interest in anycast 6to4 continuing to exist, 

This actually brings up a good argument:

  are you going to pay for us to run our 6to4 relay?


not that the cost of it is high, but there is cost to it - to make sure
it keeps working, to monitor the system for overload, etc.

Our customers don't really need it (because we have native IPv6), we're
offering this for free to benefit users on the other side that do not
have native IPv6, but insist on not using IPv4.


And this also points out why anycasted 6to4 is necessarily(!) less 
reliable than those other Internet technologies that you have mentioned -
because those that run the relays usually have no financial interest in
doing so.  So if it breaks, it will take longer to notice and even longer
to fix than for something that directly affects paying customers.

 saying this because I successfully use 6to4 on a fairly common basis ...

Do we really need to go through all this again?

As long as there is no Internet Overlord that can command people to 
a) put up relays everywhere and b) ensure that these relays are working,
6to4 as a general mechanism for attachment to the IPv6 Internet is FAIL.

If someone wants to use 6to4 to interconnect his machines over an IPv4
infrastructure (=6to4 on both ends), nobody is taking this away.

Whitelisting, on the other hand, is the term that Google introduced for

Not quite.  If ICANN decides we won't listen to IETF anymore, or we
try to inforce non-useful politics to the RIRs there is no big reason 
why the RIRs couldn't just kick ICANN, install the NRO in its place, and 
change the structure to

  IETF - NRO - RIRs

Remember: the existing mechanism works, because the communities (!!) agree 
that it's a useful way to handle address distribution.

The US DoC might have some say for ARIN, but the rest of the world
couldn't care less - and I'm sure that the DoC is well aware of this and
won't try to break apart working structures.

So this is all sort of academic.

Things work a lot better if IETF and RIRs work hand-in-hand - that is,
IETF makes standards that people can work with, and RIRs use allocation
policies that somewhat reflect what the protocol designers had in mind.

For IPv6, this isn't a huge success story yet...

 There are currently quite some ISP's who filter anything /35.
 Generally ISP's should be filtering on allocation boundaries.
 Thus if a certain prefix is allocated as a /32, they should not
 be accepting anything smaller (/33, /34 etc)

There is no commonly agreed-upon best practice for this yet.

We do *not* suppress more-specifics from those address blocks, as we
think it's a legitimate wish for certain networks to be multihomed,
and currently there is no other solution than to go for the pragmatic
approach, and just announce a /40 or even /48.

I agree that things that are more specific than a /48 should not be
out there.

[..]
 the ipv6 global routing table is quite small, but it could grow
 quite large and when ISP's still don't filter correctly, or better
 if ISP's don't aggregate it will explode and we will be needing
 the follow up to BGP soon, which is more work for the IETF :)

If every holder of an AS will announce one prefix at maximum (which
should be doable by proper aggregation), the v6 BGP table would grow
to about 20.000 entries.  This is still manageable, although it would
kill my good old Cisco 2500 that still has a full v6 BGP table...

 As for which smoked filled room, this should be a task of the
 RIRs, thus RIPE's IPv6 WG etc. but it usually takes place when
 communicating between ISP's. Notice that many ISP's use Gerts list:
 http://www.space.net/~gert/RIPE/ipv6-filters.html
 
 I would applaud a generic /32 that is 'allowed' to being cut up
 into multiple /48's for the purpose of critical infrastructure.
 But please, keep it to 1 *documented* /32. That way people will
 know that they will see more specifics from that prefix and that
 they should be accepting it too.

As you cite my page, you will also know that it does not make a specific
recommendation on the subject of filtering things between /35 and /48...
