David,
Well, I don't know that "we" do, but Joel made a remarkable assertion
that non-aggregable assignments to end users, the ones still needed
for multihoming, would go down under IPv6. I wondered about his
reasoning. Stan then offered the surprising clarification that a
reduction in the use of NAT would naturally result in a reduction of
multihoming.
Regards,
Bill
