Might we instead inist that the «let's make the RIPE NCC take existing IPv4 allocations away from someone else (and give them to me)» crowd actually submits a formal policy proposal to that effect? If it turns out they're unwilling to do so, we could call them to order due to the purpose of this list isn't to be a wailing wall for people to vent about wanting more IPv4 addresses. If on the other hand a proposal does get submitted, we could discuss it on its merits. (After the proposal has gone the way I believe it would, it would be appropriate to reconsider Nick's suggestion.) Tore
