Perhaps people would support the Proposal, if the there was a stricter condition on the transfers, ie

that the Lir has not had any transfered IPs added to its registry,  (in addtition to the rule that the Lir has not transferred IPs out of its registry)

Hi,

I would support this proposal with some amendments, first there should be a 'top-cap' on how many IPs a LIR can have and still request a new /22 every 18 months - for example if a LIR has an /20 equivalent or more already assigned this LIR could not request new allocation (this has already been pointed out on the list) and I think that there should also be a minimum RIPE free space cap, where if we would reach somewhere in the range of /12 only new LIRs are eligible to get new /22 allocation.

This is to get new entrants in the market some more wiggle room against the old players.

Sincerely,
Uros

If RIPE runs out of IPv4 sooner it will not help switching to v6 faster.
It only means that the new entrants will have to buy the resources from
the market at prices which will be obviously higher.

Iran is a good example, as a country can be considered a relatively new
entrant. What has happened over there ? 0.05% IPv6 adoption rate
according to google stats and Iran is the #1 importing country of IPv4
resources.

I don't understand why there's still this confusion that if RIPE's pool
will be empty, many think there will be no more IPv4 available and
everyone will go the next day to IPv6. It's totally wrong.
