  RFC4193 - Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Addresses

http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv6-address-space
FC00::/7              Unique Local Unicast    [RFC4193]

  ..maybe they should have called it RFC1918 for IPv6.

FWIW, 2001:0DB8::/32 was allocated by APNIC.  Not quite the same as 
being an RFC/IANA delegated/reserved netblock.
