Max and all, why can't it be enforced now? Why can these unused IP's be reclimed or at least parto of them? -----Original Message-----

Was that the 14/8 thing? Only 129 individual addresses out of 16777216 where used. Maybe just reclaiming the other 16777087 would have been more efficient.
May be. But sorry, you can't enforce it now. You even have no time to make an implemented in the real life policy that can reclaim any block before free IP space will be finished.
So, we have to live with market. Not only because of it. The only we can do is to make that market white and clear.
