The IETF is where it's coming from (the ASRG mailing list, to be more
precise). I just pointed to the discussion here on the SA list because
SA will most likely be a prime "user" of whatever new protocols /
designs being RFCed.

As far as I could follow the discussion, I have the feeling that there is

1) some common understanding of the issues (sheer size of the IP
space, which makes it hard to manage data in regular operations, and
even more so when confronted with intentional or unintentional abusive
behavior), and
2) some common understanding of the solution space (from "make
everything new" via "pimp up the protocol" to "do not change anything
and hope for the best", with most arguments centering around the
middle ground).

Thanks for all your arguments.
