Rene,

Perhaps it's an idea to polish it up following ripe50 and publish on the RIS or RIPE website?

Yes, we should. I've been thinking about this and I think we should put this in self-contained report that we can give out to interested people, probably as an informational RIPE document (so one can easily point to it). That means taking your text and graphs, add an introduction to it, separate "facts" and "models" somewhat, and expand the conclusion section a bit. For the contents, your text would be a great starting point. For the rest of the text, I do have some ideas but no time to work on it now. I will give it a shot after RIPE50.
