Re: [sig-policy] prop-045: Proposal to modify "end site"definition and allow end sites to receive IPv6 allocations

So then you're suggesting that we need also a complete review of the "site"
definition ? Any specific suggestions ?

I think it would be less complicated to just make a proposal for certain classes of non-ISP network to qualify for an allocation. Changing the definition of 'end site' makes things more complicated and is likely to have unanticipated knock-on consequences.

I'm still not entirely certain which groups of networks you want to include. The example you gave was a university but there are a number of universities that already have IPv6 allocations without this policy. How are they different from the universities you are trying to help? Is it a major difference in the way they run their networks or is it something else?
