I've already said my piece(s) on the list on this topic and I don't feel
like starting it again today.  Check the archives from about a month
ago.

I _much_ prefer the idea of using globally routable addresses for
melbwireless and any other community wireless group.

I suspect that if community wireless groups worldwide got together we
could organise a significant allocation of globally routable space (e.g.
a
class A, cf. net 44 for ham radio).  We would need to demonstrate clue
and
the ability to correctly manage the allocation.

The mailing list is a good start.  I'm glad to see my post got the DNS
fixed.
