Hi, I would support this proposal with some amendments, first there should be a 'top-cap' on how many IPs a LIR can have and still request a new /22 every 18 months - for example if a LIR has an /20 equivalent or more already assigned this LIR could not request new allocation (this has already been pointed out on the list) and I think that there should also be a minimum RIPE free space cap, where if we would reach somewhere in the range of /12 only new LIRs are eligible to get new /22 allocation.
This is to get new entrants in the market some more wiggle room against the old players.
