So how about we just work out what range we are going to use.  And when
people need an IP or a range for a DNS server they send an email through to
Steve or whichever person/people take charge or allocating IP's and they
just keep a list.

This thread has gone around most if not all of the community/open wireless 
lists gobally.

With respect, don't consider allocating IP networks on the basis of 
geography. It will not help with routing simplicity. Multiple p2p links just

will not align themselves with preallocated networks along netmask 
boundaries, and the topology will likely be unpredictable until its there
..

And secondly, don't even consider geo-based routing protocols/schemas. This 
is not AX25, and we do not have the luxury of high overlap between active 
network gateway/node areas.
