Woops, you are right. I _think_ it was /32 back then when I noticed it 
first (which was before the introduction of portable assignments), but 
I'm not sure anymore. I should have checked my facts first. Apologies 
are in order here. OTOH, it is listed in their database as /32. Also I 
did not think of assignments ("PI") because I would have expected 
something like a /48 for the various APNIC entities, not /35.

So lets make v6TE the first crazy idea.
