Hello,
I feel that /26 is the smallest reasonable subnet size for an IXP, no
matter how small the IXP is initially. If it starts growing, it will
quickly grow past /27, but might just stay inside the /26. This is based
on empirical experience over the decades.
I do agree that it would be nice if the vendors took RFC 5549 seriously.
A lot of IXPs would be ready to adopt it, if it was an option. It will
create some headaches for route server scalability, but perhaps bird3
will fix those... anyway I digress...
My two cents,
PS. I don't think Tore appreciates how much more difficult it is to
renumber an IXP compared to a data centre or an access provider.
