RE: [RRG] Consensus check: renumbering

|"current renumbering technology" could mean a whole lot of things  
|including typing in new addresses. 


Indeed.  Current techology includes a lot of manual work, scripting, and
DHCP.  In some cases, it may also involve some site management tools.  I'm
told that Tivoli, for example, can help with this.


|"amount" doesn't provide any value  
|and can't be quantified to any value. 


The amount is specified in the options of the poll: 

   1. None at all
   2. Once only
   3. Once per ISP added or dropped
   4. Lots


|And "RRG recommend 
|architecture"  
|is also vague. Does it mean a new routing architecture or the Loc/ID  
|split architectures we have been discussing?


Yes.  Again, the RRG is chartered to recommend a new routing and addressing
architecture.  Currently the locator/identifier split has the largest
mindshare.
