I guess that it may make sense to define a time frame here... i mean, an organization planning to provide IPv6 connectivity in 20 years would qualify here?
Yes. But how much harm can it do? This organization would eat up about 1/4294967296 of the address space, and pay a yearly fee to RIPE to be permitted to keep it. Sounds like a fair deal to me.
If the address space is allocated and doesn't even end up in the routing tables, even better.
I don't think I agree here. So, 1-man consulting companies, providing web hosting for one customer could fulfill the criteria for a /32? Looks like every enterprise out there would also get a /32. Doesn't look like a good idea at all. While I agree that the "200 customers" rule could maybe use a bit of improvement, I don't think removing it completely is the right fix at all. So, I'm opposed to the policy change. -- Pekka Savola "You each name yourselves king, yet the Netcore Oy kingdom bleeds." Systems. Networks. Security. -- George R.R. Martin: A Clash of Kings
