Attempts of Registration and Allocation
For ULA prefixes, SIXXS is known to maintain a voluntary registration database to reduce the risk of duplicates. As such a database is neither standardized nor mandated, it will reduce the risk of duplicates, but it can never eliminate it altogether.
For the fc00::/8 range, different design decisions have been proposed, trading the non-uniqueness for the requirement that the range be managed by a central allocation authority. However, such attempts at standardizing this range have not resulted in a Request for Comments.

Famous quotes containing the word attempts:
“For a novel addressed by a man to men and women of full age; which attempts to deal unaffectedly with the fret and fever, derision and disaster, that may press in the wake of the strongest passion known to humanity; to tell, without a mincing of words, of a deadly war waged between flesh and spirit; and to point the tragedy of unfulfilled aims, I am not aware that there is anything in the handling to which exception can be taken.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
