I used to assume there is "ALLOCATED PA", "ASSIGNED PA" and "ASSIGNED PI", and those are well-defined. Add "Legacy" to it (outside RIR framework).

Well. Sorry for not being precise in my wording. What I tried to say is that LEGACY is a special status that acknowledges that these prefixes have been given out before the RIRs existed. They live "outside the RIR framework" as far as being subject to RIPE policy is concerned - except in well-defined documents, RIPE policy does not apply to LEGACY space. They *do* live "within" the RIR framework as far as documentation is concerned, and this is very good :-) In any case, they have a very distinct shade of grey... ;-) Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...?
