meh. If my statements were as murky to you as they were to me after I
read my response when it hit the list, I just want to clarify that I
don't, haven't, and never would believe any statement from anyone who
claims that /64's will be obsoleted.

Besides, of course, anyone with an interest at a scale that would make
such an announcement worrisome would publish it properly before the
vendor did. Those on a smaller scale who cared would know where to look
for that notification.

...for some reason, my messages don't make sense to me until after I
send them, even though I've 'previewed' prior to sending ;)
