[address-policy-wg] aggregating unused allocations

[Antonis Lioumis]

Hello

Recently my company got a /22 allocation through the well known transfer 
procedure between LIR's.
In the past we also got the /22 we qualify from RIPE NCC's last /8. This 
/22 was put aside for future use.
For aggregation purposes we asked RIPE NCC to return both /22 and get 
back a /21 but according to current policies this is forbidden.
Since global routing table has exceeded 500000 prefixes and expected to 
grow more maybe RIPE community should rethink permitting the exchange of 
smaller IPv4 blocks with contiguous one.


Regards
