I like the idea of the NCC (specifically RIPE Labs) just allocating to themselves a small block of v4 and another of v6 for experiments, and then delegating portions or the whole of the block for bounded experiments, keeping the paperwork and process to a minimum. Also, RIPE could perhaps extort a good talk out of the researchers once the results are published ;-)
"The policy is too complicated, just circumvent it" is not the way we try to handle policy in RIPE land. If it is so, we try to fix the policy (or the process). That said, there is no way the RIPE NCC could assign a reasonably *big* block of IPv4 - to have multiple /24s available for routing - to itself under current policy anyway. Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...? SpaceNet AG Vorstand: Sebastian v. Bomhard, Michael Emmer Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 14 Aufsichtsratsvors.: A.
