So, unless address space is returned to IANA (we don't have a policy for returning RIR space to IANA at the moment, but we might) the whole 1.08 >/8 will eventually be allocated as /22s.
So, Are we going to keep 18.11 Million address for new LIRs?.
This is current policy.
Thats makes 17685 new lirs, way more than double as we have now...sorry but that is ridiculous when we have LIRs with v4 allocation problems.
Actually, it's called "reasonable stewardship", at least trying to do so: make sure that a new LIR in 10 years time can still get their /22 as well. The number "/22" was based on the current number of LIRs and growth estimates, and we could well be up at 25.000 in 10 years. (I'm not voicing an opinion on the actual proposal, just explaining that the current policy didn't happen "by accident" but after quite some debate, and was found by consensus. For the existing LIRs back then, "just give it all to the existing LIRs and stop thinking IPv4" would have been much more straightforward, but I'm sure you'd have not liked it any better) Gert Doering -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...?
