"4.0 Warning
Networks assigned under this policy may not be globally routable."
People may want to change the warning from "may not be globally routable" to "should not be globally routable" (or another choice of words). If so, we're happy to publish an updated document with whatever wording the community reaches consensus on.
I'll recommend against changing this. Whether or not this *should* be routeable is not part of the RIPE policy. The whole statement is a *warning* - "hey, this network block is special, and the assignments are smaller. So it's possible that routing may not be possible. You have been warned!". It doesn't mandate any sort of best practice, and it shouldn't - the community doesn't know yet what the best practice on prefix filtering *is*, so how can a policy document?
