In 2006 they also gave ARIN a /23 and APNIC a /20. Then, one month later they expanded some previous RIR allocations into /12's; separate from the previous two allocations I mentioned. They are also allocated in a seemingly random order throughout 2000::/3, which they've decided to constrain their allocations to for some reason.
To the point that the linux documentation project still recommends the following as an ipv6 default route example:
/sbin/ip -6 route add 2000::/3 via 2001:0db8:0:f101::1
Yea.. it's /workable/, but a lot of decisions with respect to IPv6 feel like wasted opportunities that have only slowed adoption and promoted general confusion.
