[Irtf-rr] Just an idea for a self organiziong IPv6 address space network

[Xiaowei Yang]

just out of curiosity, can someone explain what "meshy networks" are?
I understand Internet is no telephone network, and does not have a
strict hierarchy. but the customer-provider relationship defines a
hierarchical relationship, and two provider trees may be connected by
horizontal peering links. so, why is the idea of self organizing
address space so surprising?
