[AusNOG] IPv4

Mon Mar 4 00:14:19 EST 2013

Sorry wasn't meant to come out like that, and I have NO idea WHY Skeeve
even brought me into something like this about employment and outsourcing
and not supporting un-developed countries.

So I'm just going to leave it at that and get back to my beer!

We've probably covered just about everything we're going to cover on the
IPv6 front... unless you guys actually want to pull out a ruler?

 Just to clarify on your comment Skeeve, I own Astraea Networks, I don't
just outsource there. So I do get my hands dirty and support / make a
change to a developing country. Is that enough to satisfy you?

 If James is setting up IN-NIC then that would be amazing, as would some
education in ip allocations there etc. as it certainly is needed, as said
before be allocation they give out for a DSL is unbelievable.

 Jared,

 My point was not what you do or don't do... but your attitude is screaming
'me me me'.  Lots of people here use outsourced staff from developing
nations (it's not called Third World anymore), so it is nothing amazing.
 You pay people to do a job.  Sure, they might live well, but what are you
doing to change India itself? What are you doing to change the future and
make things better?

 I know a lot of the guys involved in the ISP scene in India... I know
quite reasonably what is going on over there... and so do other people who
have invested the time, like James Spenceley who has a tonne of dealing
with them, especially over the last couple of years in their fight to setup
their own IN-NIC.

 I am not someone who normally tells people what I do to affect change
overseas, but I was accused of not caring about the developing world, when
nothing is further from the truth.

 I'm here, arguing for the developing nations... and that the lower APNIC
fees will help them... you are only talking about yourself, and how you are
affected and that one of the solutions should be that fees are raised.

 I am not targeting you in my comments here... It is for anyone who can't
get past their own self and needs and think about the wider community.
 Those who can't see that policies affect everyone differently, and that
the 'needs of the many', often outweigh the needs of the entitled few.

 My view in relation to Internet Governance and Resources Policy is that I
don't really care what rich entitled nations like Australia need right now.
 I care about developing nations where the lives of hundreds of millions
will be affected over the next few years of massive internet growth.

 If you do come to APNIC meetings, or do join APNIC SIG Policy, you better
come with a perspective of what is best for the whole community - just just
your little corner.  If you don't, you will experience dozens of nations
who will come back at you with force.

 To clarify.  I am not saying that Jared, Bevan, or anyone else isn't doing
enough to help the world in any way.  Mine is a calling... something that
blends my skills, beliefs and life aims..  It isn't for everyone.  What
annoys me is when people only seem to argue for themselves without
considering those who are far far less fortunate.
