well, i think you should look furtehr through the big-internet
archives - there are several excellent proposals all of which will
scale to very large Internets - the problem is too many, not too
bad...

well said! - the surpirsing success of the Internet was not least due
to DARPA forsoight in funding the bsd tcp/ip and other projects

maybe someone will do the same for IPv7 (or for clnp with 
go-faster/bigger-stripes)

some people say we just have to weait for ATM, but atm has none of the
dynamic routing or other level 3 services (or directory stuff) defined
at all...its just another subnet at the moment, so the same research
is needed to get it to come up to IP functionality in this sense ...
