Every LIR really has to accept that they have to wean themselves off IPv4 and have a serious approach to using IPv6. You’re going to have to do this at some point. You might as well do it now. IPv4 allocations from the RIRs are not going to last forever. Changing the address policy for everyone just so you can continue with an IPv4-only networking approach for a few more months is both unfair and unwise.
Well said, Jim. FWIW, I'm agreeing fully with what you say here. The current "last /8" policy is working the way it should.
the only thing i would add, with extreme sadness and some disgust, it that they could do as many have, go nat/cgn. randy
