I have to respectfully (strongly) disagree with this. Unless
there is a
strong policy about the boundaries and boundaries are fixed, it
leaves the
door open to chaos (and while I am a great fan of a chaotic open
internet,
there are limits).
I will strongly suggest not to go down there as it raises several
other
issues which cannot really be addressed here. A registry can not
guaranty
reservation at 100% for several reasons. Further more, reservation has
an impact on global policy as it has to be taken in account for
requesting
subsequent allocation from IANA. I think the role of our registration
service is to make sure that provision is made for reasonable
growth and
for reasonable period. Trust the registry on that.
I agree with Adiel, and I reiterate, we should leave this to the
registry. We have given them a job and IMHO, they are doing it well
so far.
