Hello, Noone (in the RIPE/NCC service region) is able to get more than a /22, according to current policies, or did i miss something? If someone is asking (and actually getting) more than a /22, those allocations need to be revoked -- i honestly thought current policy already included that...

Hi everybody.
Let me tell some words about current proposal.
Many providers (among them is our company) need to get (e.g.) /20 subnet (not 4 x /22). If we ask the RIPE NCC to allocate 4 x /22, we can get next variants: 1. /20 2. 2 x /21 from different subnets 3. /22, /21, /22
There is only one chance to get /20 100% - make request for 7 x /22 (if the tickets will be processed together). But in this case we will have unwanted 3 x /22 which we can transfer to other LIRs to minimize our expenses. And also we can get different separate 4 x /22 (the worst case) and we have to transfer such blocks and make new request.
If this proposal will be agreed, many providers (new and old) will have material losses. So I can't support this proposal.
