The review phase for 2014-04 has ended.  

Given the amount of support over the lifetime of this proposal, and the 
nature of the opposition, I have decided that we have reached rough 
consensus  (Sander as co-chair has abstained, because he has officially 
taken an opionion).

The main counterargument brought up was that this would lower the incentive
for LIRs to adopt IPv6 and would create the impression that IPv6 is no 
longer important to the RIPE community.  To counter that, the chairs will 
ask the RIPE NCC to continue their good work in raising IPv6 awareness
and to continue to mention it on IPv4 /22 requests.

So, I consider the counterarguments addressed, and see enough support to
declare rough consensus and move the proposal forward.

This is what I'll do now -> move 2014-04 to Last Call.  Marco will send 
the formal announcement for that later today or tomorrow.

For reference, a list of people that voiced support or opposition (or 
something else) in the previous review phase is appended below.  This is
what I have based my decision on.

If you disagree with my interpretation of what has been said and the
conclusion I have drawn from it, please let us know.

Gert Doering,
        Address Policy WG Chair


Review Phase for V3.0, starting Dec 09, 2014

Support:

    Nick Hilliard
    Andre Keller
    Daniel Roesen
    Hamed Shafaghi
    Tore Anderson
    Daniel Stolpe
    Erik Bais
    Mike Burns
    George Giannousopoulos
       (as long as the NCC informs applicants about IPv6)
    Sebastian Wiesinger

Opposing:

    Daniel Baeza
    Stefan Schiele
       (both on the basis that stronger encouragement for IPv6 is needed,
        and that the IPv4 "last /22" policy would be the right approach 
        to doing it)

Comment, not stating clear pro/con
