Dear Michiel,

I've never seen an RFC or any other standard referring to a global unicast address block other than 2000::/3. Of course it looks reasonable that in the future you can slice 0000::/1 or 8000::/1 into /3 blocks, but I've never read anything official. So at least it's news for me.

BTW what is already in use within 0000::/1 and 8000::/1 besides 2000::/3?
