Re: [sig-policy] APNIC document review: IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy

Hi Son,

Thank you very much for drafting the IPv6 policy.

I have two comments.

In section 2.7:

      ^^^^^^^
     /56s to ?

Should this 'in units of /48 assignments' be modified so as to be
consistent with the description in section 2.7 and 2.8 ?
