Maybe something along the lines of "you can have a second /22" after a certain period of time if you only have a /22.
The rationale behind this could be that RIPE NCC got more address space than anticipated when the last /8 was made. According to https://www.ripe.net/publications/ipv6-info-centre/about-ipv6/ipv4-exhaustion/ipv4-available-pool-graph RIPE NCC currently have 17.7 M IPv4 addresses left - which is slightly more than a /8
(https://www.ripe.net/publications/ipv6-info-centre/about-ipv6/ipv4-exhaustion/ipv4-available-pool-graph) NRO June figures: https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nro.net%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2FNRO_Q2_2015.pdf Afrinic: 2.7 RIPE NCC: 1.08 APNIC: 0,69 Lacnic: 0.16 Arin: 0.1 now down to 0.0015 So if somebody want to pursue this I suggest looking a t https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-642 and create a proposal using the Policy template in Appendix B But it is really time to get serious about IPv6.
