Fair enough.

I am employed by Cisco Systems, but all of my statements are my own and I do 
not represent my employer.  I believe that my employer may benefit from any 
policy that makes IP addresses more available to more of our customers - we can 
perhaps sell more routers if more people have addresses - but nobody from Cisco 
has encouraged me to work in this topic.  Otherwise, I have no commercial 
interest in the outcome of the policy proposals that I've made.  The proposals 
that I've put forward are an honest attempt to motivate conversation.

If anybody has any doubts and/or I can clarify anything about my interests, let 
me know.

Cheers,
-Benson
