If IANA had any resolve there are at least 25 -30 Class A blocks that
should be reclaimed and are not or should not be part of the public
Internet address space.

Brian,
My comment was regarding a head in the sand approach when it comes
to the recurring themes that the developing world can't IP address
space, whether it is v4 or v6. The fact is that they can get it from
the RIR like those in the developed regions can get it from their
RIRs. The real problem, in other words, putting head in sand, is to
substitute this address space access issue for the real one of what
can the recipients of the address space do with it when they get,
particularly if they have no hardware to run it on, no electricity
to power it, and no upstream willing to route it. It is those issues
that need to be hit head on if the Internet is to really grow in the
developing regions of the globe.

Ray,
I don't think it's quite fair to refer to ostriches
when ARIN is already on record:
http://www.arin.net/v6/v6-resolution.html
Also, for those who like to see things in real time,
there's always http://penrose.uk6x.com/
