This is information of which I was not previously aware. I appreciate being made aware of this and intend to ensure that it is taken into account during the proposal's next revision cycle.
To what benefit would one receive to have the resource considered as space allocated by RIPE NCC? Perhaps the RIPE NCC can provide some examples so we can understand this.
+1 OTOH, if a resource holder, fully aware of the consequences, chooses to make such a request, we should perhaps not propose policy which would force the NCC to decline it. Whether the choice were an informed one might be a concern. /Niall
