FWIW, I should think that xDSL providers should be held to the same 
standards as Cable Internet providers. The similarities between the two 
(always-on, homes-passed, etc.) are enough that they should have the same 
criteria.

If there is a difference in how they can get PI space, then that's 
something I think should be addressed. I don't think that trying to get the 
same methodology for address space assignments is "sneaky" really.

My opinion, no one else's. :)
