Hello,

I think both sides have different perspectives on the issue. I am not getting the full picture of the issue at the moment.

I understand the per-address-fee for ipv6 that is applied to NIRs (actually it is not a per-address-fee but a per block fee of the allocation to the end-user).

My questions are:

1) Is the complexity really a problem? Problem in which aspect? Financial projection?

2) How bad of a short-term problem is it for NIR operations compared to the other NIR activities? (rate 1-10 1-not really a problem 10-a very bad problem)

3) How bad of a long-term problem is it for NIR operations compared to other

NIR activities (rate 1-10 1-not really a problem 10-a very bad problem)?

4) Apart from the proposed solutions are there any other solutions to this problem?

5) What is the best solution? Why you think it is the best one? What would be the short-term and long-term impact for this solution?

6) Could the solution be altered to accommodate both short-term and long- term impact before this 8weeks period ends?

7) What would be the impact of the altered solution (impact to APNIC, impact to the rest of the community, impact of growth on IPv6 allocations by NIR, other impacts)?

I like the ipv6 initiatives, but again we are in a community.
