The policy makes no statements about large, multi-national end-users who
want/need to obtain space. The IPv6 multi-prefix addressing multi-homing
mechanism specified in the standards RFC's is too onerous for these large
end-users to implement.
Through various discussions in multi6 and other mailing lists, I saw a
rough consensus that large multi-national entities might expect to receive
space through the RIR's as LIR's.
The challenge: how to define a "large multi-national end-user" such that
it would embody the spirit of what we're trying to accomplish.
