Hi,

I have to ask, who can request an netblock from this address space
and from where?
I might be blind but I couldn't find it mentioned anywhere.

Good question. Will there be a central registry, or will parts of the space 
be
delegated to i.e. LISP based ISPs?


Hi Sander,

no central registry has been ever discussed, was more about delegated the
space to LISP ISPs.

So there will be a pool of addresses that the RIR's can allocate out of for 
EIDs?  If that's the case, what is the additional value to an ISP who would 
conceivably have to pay the RIR for another block of V6 addresses specifically 
for use as EIDs, when most likely they are already paying for a block that can 
be used for either purpose?
