	one thing i'm observing about analysis/scenarios effort is that,
	there are so many configuration option for IPv4 network (for instance,
	if there are 100 ISPs there will be 100, or more!, different network
	designs, all with good reasons).  so i'm now not sure if we can really
	generalize those various configuration into 4 analysis/scenario domains.

	thererefore, i'm thinking of submitting a draft which describes what
	we (IIJ, AS2497) did to deploy IPv6 backbone as well as IPv6 services.

	before start writing stuff up, my question is:
	- does it sound useful?
	- doesn't it jeopadize ISP analysis/scenario effort, or is it okay to
	  have generalized analysis/scneario doc and specific-ISP doc in
	  parallel?
	- if it is useful, can other ISP/enterprise/whatever do the similar
	  thing?

	NOTE: i'm on ISP scenario group.  i'm not very active in the group
	though (sorry).
