Usually I manage to keep the Strangelove hand in check and not feed the troll, but the matter was raised (at least in the ARIN region). https://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/2011_5.html I believe that the arguments that shared transition space were IETF's purview were compelling. I'm no fan of non-globally-unique space in general, but forcing the RFC route was the least-worst route for things to move forward. Randy, I trust that you're also vigorously advocating people's use of UK-MOD-19850128 (aka net 25) as "just more 1918 space" inside their organizations too? After all, it's what I encourage *my* competitors to do. -r
