If you think ipv6 implementation obligations are a good idea, then please feel free to put forward a separate policy to introduce them, but don't confuse them with changing the last /8 allocation policies because they are fundamentally different things.

They failed because top-down decrees don't work. As a separate issue, the RIPE NCC is not in the business of telling its members how to run their networks. Nick
