Re: [Wg-ipv6-guide] (TOC 7.3) Closed Networks

Hi Hosaka-san and all,

I think there will be a question on how one can meet the current
 ipv6 policy 5.1.1(c), and be unconnected in the same time, 
because 5.1.1(c) says that the organization must have a plan to 
advertise its connectivity.

Therefore I think it will be useful if we could clarify how to 
interpret this; will an organization qualify if he at least has 
a plan to connect globally even if it is not connected yet;  or 
will an organization qualify if it is advertising its 
connectivity to somewhere and it need not be the global ipv6. 
Personally I'm not quite sure of what the latter interpretation 
is suggesting.
