Currently, IETF standards activity carries little or no weight for an
academic career profile. It doesn't appear to have a weighting compared to
peer review publication. I think this is a shame, because the contribution
is as substantive, if not more so. And, since time is limited and choices

Very true Joel. I did, for a while, pattern match the 6rd prefix from Free.FR's

I have updated the graph to include 6rd, based on my understanding that the

There is *other* FreeNet space, which appears to do things, but I sense its not
