It's right Perry, everyone want to own a own adress Space that is protect
for
him, her or for the company. But It isn't quite good to expand the IP's to
monsters of numbers.
I think the IETF has to think about a whole new method to cover that
problem.

If I think to real future (means in up to 5 - 10 years) so many Computers
and
other Hardware will connect to the Internet that also the method of
expanding
the IP - adress space wouldn't be enough. The organization of the IP -
Adress
coverage should be checked.
Think about that.
At the moment the companys, the provider and the adress space organziations
handle the IP - Pool. But wouldn't be better to check the really needed
adress spaces for a company or an provider, instat giving them A-class and
so on number-spaces away? Such saying you aren't using this IP's now for
3 Month, sorry we'll have to give them away?
It is not possible that organizations or company block adress spaces and
then don't use them. I know, the companys and the private People too, wanna
have secured adress spaces, but at the moment it seems that a kind of
IP - grebing is started.
Well, is only a feeling and I also have no solution for that problem, but
also IPV6 wouldn't cover that. Is a kind of handling Problem!

I only could say YES! This situation is now really horrible.
