If you want to do this, you might as well do it right in the first place. IMHO, delegating space to a RIR as a single block is a mistake. It would be much more flexible to assign space to countries, and simply say that RIRs have stewardship of the space assigned to countries belonging to them. If a country changes RIRs like we have seen for LACNIC and like we will likely see for AFRINIC, no change in addresses and the geographical summary is preserved.
How would such a system cope with networks crossing international boundaries? Also, if an enterprise LIR moved from country A to country B, would they have to renumber? Regards, -- leo vegoda RIPE NCC Registration Services
