Hi Richard, Just a quick grep on the alloclist file : September 2015 263 October 2015 306 November 2015 (to date) ( file from Nov. 18, 22:44 ) 183 So I can't see how many new LIR's have been setup, until they have actually received any resources .. but this is how many LIR's have received a /22's in the last couple of months. So unless these 2000 LIR's haven't requested their resources yet .. they might want to check the number..

Very much related, this German article[1] claims that in November, 2000 new LIRs were created, bringing the total amount of LIRs to almost 13,000. Can someone reconfirm with official numbers, please? I am _very_ much concerned about what that means for any potential future GMs if those, let's call them creative, people and LIRs vote en bloc.
