We have a "low regime" since last /8 policy is on. But what is that fantasy all of a sudden, to relax measures that had been ruling or everyday life since ages ?
Right now, the only thing you need to do to get a /22 out of that /8 is to do a little administration and pay money to RIPE. I don't understand why you think that having RIPE require pre-depletion style paperwork when this just doesn't reflect reality anymore is going to help anything. Individual LIRs just cannot hurt the global resource depletion rate by waste anymore, at least not in the RIPE region. Let's cut down on paperwork for everybody by accepting this policy. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
