This policy proposal recommends setting the minimum assignment size for temporary assignments to a /24 while still allowing for a smaller assignment if requested by the End User. This policy proposal also allows routing requirements to justify the request for more than a /24 for research purposes.
There seems to be not great interest in this proposal, but this might be because it mainly affects network researchers ("I need a few addresses but it needs to be a routable /24") who might not be following the APWG activities... Speaking for myself, with some understanding on network testing / BGP announcement testing, etc., I support this proposal. These are temporary addresses, so the largest risk is "the NCC runs out of temporary /24s for a while, and someone else can not do their experiments needing a /24" - but without that change, neither can.
