I think that they'll kick the can down the road for some time more with
dynamic DHCP. I've kept the same IP address for as long as I've kept my
router on, but could imagine getting a little address space headroom by
cutting the lease time down.
Although, not sure how many stale leases there are, now that I think about
it.
I would hate to be behind a private address space. That would go completely
against the idea of a network of nodes and complete our transition to
consumers of content instead of network nodes.
