Let me see, in the current RIPE allocation list*, there is a school at 2001:4b20::/32 consisting of basically two buildings, there is a registrar at 2001:4b98::/32, who do not do hosting I guess. And there are a really large number of "ISP's" who really do not have more than 2 19" racks worth of equipment.
I really wonder why people are complaining that they can't get a prefix. Really, if you are not able to become LIR, and get a prefix, while they quite apparently can, then you should simply quit change your job IMHO.
So, what you are saying is, that the current policy is good, because it can be bypassed by just lying?
If you say they are lying, then complain to RIPE NCC that they are doing their jobs wrongly. Apparently everybody who has gotten an allocation up to now have been able to reason that they need the allocation under the current policies. If you are not able to do so, though luck, you most likely don't need it in the first place then. Greets, Jeroen
