Regarding the return of 16-bit ASNs to RIPE, do you think it would be possible to make it in an automated way? i.e. create a web page where ASN owners can declare their willingness to keep or return the ASN they own; then contact just the returners. Assuming a good percentage of owners gives an answer (whether positive or negative), then it'll be made more clear how many of these unknown-state 16-bit ASNs is actually unknown. I don't know if there is any estimation from previous communication, if there is actually any success on giving back ASNs. -- Tassos
