Dear Gert,
Agree with your opinion regards RFC 2050.
Main idea this RFC: This document describes the registry system for the distribution of globally unique Internet address space and registry operations.
Goals:
> 1. Conservation: Fair distribution of globally unique Internet address space according to the
> operational needs of the end-users and Internet Service Providers operating networks using this
> address space. Prevention of stockpiling in order to maximize the lifetime of the Internet address
> space.
This doesn't required anymore. While RIPE doesn't have free space for distributing.
It was very useful before and respect for people who wrote it while principes in this RFC were very useful long time. But for now it looks as deprecated and not updated.
Some words from RFC which looks like depriceated:
...Currently there are three regional IRs established;
InterNIC serving North America, RIPE NCC serving Europe, and AP-
NIC serving the Asian Pacific region...
...3.2 Network Engineering Plans..
2. a description of the network topology
3. a description of the network routing plans, including the
routing protocols to be used as well as any limitations..

Like we have Addresses to Distribute :-) - the IPv4 run-out has fairly
fundamental consequences for the environment in which we operate, and
at least one of the pillars of RFC2050 ("conservation") is not exactly
relevant anymore.
I consider RFC2050 a very useful document to establish principles, but it
can not be binding - and in doubt, the bottom-up community based process
will win.
