Greg,
In Ripe region you can't get /24 prefix allocated for DNS BGP anycast hosting if you are a normal business (like a DNS service provider who just wants to compete in this business crowd) unless you are gTLD or ccTLD. In Arin region you can get ONE /24 prefix for this purpose... This is why I am harsh with my comments to gTLD and ccTLD owners who now want more than one /24 prefix for DNS hosting in Ripe region... Sorry...
if you want to change policy, feel free to write a proposal and let's discuss it here. And if we get a consensus that such policy enhancement should be implemented in RIPE region then we are going to implement it. Meanwhile let's not stop TLDs from getting more anycast address space just because other businesses cannot get it.
