We also support PI to PA changing. Пользователь Andrea Cima <andrea@ripe.net> писал:

Dear colleagues, Following the increasing number of requests from LIRs that want to convert their PI assignments into PA allocations, we proposed the following options at RIPE 66: 1) Allow LIRs to change the status of their PI assignments into PA allocations (if equal or larger than the minimum allocation size) 2) Do not allow LIRs to change the status of their PI assignments into PA allocations After RIPE 66, the discussion was continued on the Address Policy Working Group Mailing List. There seemed to be a lot of support for allowing LIRs to change the status of their resources, but people also wanted the minimum allocation size to be disregarded. This would allow for PA allocations smaller than the minimum allocation size. It is our understanding that this last point would require a policy change. We will be addressing this as part of our "Feedback From RIPE NCC Registration Services" presentation at RIPE 67. Based on the feedback we receive from here, we will work with the Working Group Chairs on a way forward. Kind regards, Andrea Cima RIPE NCC On 10/9/13 1:34 AM, ksyu@netassist.ua wrote:

Hello everybody

I would like to draw attention of the public to the next moment . According to the RIPE policy, a PI network should be used only as it was assigned. However, the time comes, the amount of clients increases, the number of services is growing up, and v4 addresses are not assigned any more. What should provider do in this case? The network was assigned for the particular service and can't be used for other services? Just returned back . But no one in their right mind will do this ) . It may be a topical solution for this situation - to return the opportunity to transfer PI blocks into the PA? This will give the opportunity to breathe more freely, not to violate the rules of RIPE policy . I suggest to discuse the question of transference of PI blocks to PA, and invite all caring to speak on the matter.
