>The issue of the problems confronting IPv6 migration was subordinated completely to fears of ITU encroachment on the turf of the native Internet institutions. Actually, the issues of capacity building for IPv6 migration was the entire reason for the *first* correspondence group, so no doubt you intended "subordinated completely" as hyperbole... The existing Internet organizations (including the RIR's) have been very active in working this very problem; you might want to reference several of their submissions to this study group outlined these efforts. The only reason this topic didn't receive more discussion was not due to lack of interest or "fears of ITU encroachment" but the result of following terms of reference set by the ITU which focused on implementation details of a particular solution (CIR) before ever actually defining a problem statement, or even confirming existence of an actual problem... /John
