I agree too. I'd also like to point out that people should really read the existing (last /8) policy before responding to the thread. Some of the comments were discussed back when it was implemented, the conclusion of which is essentially summed up in Denis's response below. This discussion is about closing a loophole, not opening it up further. -Tim On 12/02/2016 11:04, Denis Fondras wrote:
This same rule applies now: you cannot have more than a /22 from the RIPE NCC, so some other "white area ISP" can have a /22 next year.
I totally agree. The mission of RIPE is to allow new entrants at the best conditions. If you already are in business and need more IPv4, there is a market. If it is too expensive for you, that's unfortunate. Perhaps your business-model needs some improvement.
