I don't see why RIPE need to assign a /32 when the other regions are /48s? I would also like to add that these assignments should be made out of a single block.
What would the problem be with the /32, really? Counting the addresses? Howeverm, the "out of a single block" is the part that really bothers me. Putting supposedly "critical infrastructure" as it is called elsewhere in a block that makes them all share fate in the event of network "optimisations" is still a bad idea.
Also, to follow the "have you considered private address space" (or whatever the exact formulation is ) question in the PI application, I would like to require the applicant to consider using an existing anycasting service.
Sounds like a good idea, actually. Joao
