Re: [GLOBAL-V6] PI space under IPv6

[Peter Sherbin <pesherb@yahoo.com>]

by the details i meant silly stuff such as how the protocols
actually work to support this.

Isn't that the point of the discussion. I thought it starts with definitions:
- what should bear a name
- what should have an adress
- what is the address hierarchy or does it need a hierarchy
- what are communication requirements
Answering the above gives guidelines for protocols?

Building protocols bottom up may be practical. But than what is the top goal?

Thanks,

Peter
