Hi Skeeve, | I completely agree with Aftabs evaluation of the fee related issue. | | This would create a significant burden on small LIR's.
I do not to intent to rise the barrier for small LIRs. As Aftab wrote, minimum allocation size is still /32 (no changes from fee point of view). Just allow LIRs to obtaion (or expand for existing /32 LIRs) address space up to /29 (/32 - /29) if they meet the /32 criteria, if they want.
