Dear Daniel, dear all,
First of all I support this proposal, and thank you for taking the time to create it. I think the idea has great merit, but I?m also reminded of an idea I sent out to the address policy mailing list and the feedback I got based on that. For that thread, see: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/address-policy-wg/2008/msg00501. html . Just to refresh your memory, I proposed a policy that would only allocate a single block of space, regardless of the size of the request and available remaining inventory. One of the main shortcomings of my idea was that assignments from a new allocation don?t happen in a ?gradual? way, which is one of the main assumptions behind any scheme based on time-windows. Larger organizations will just come back quicker ? not necessarily after the set window. I?m afraid this proposal has the same ?weakness?.
Kind regards,
Remco
That can be so, but still the requests will be chopped up so that others can get in the queue rather than being pre-empted by a huge request. Daniel
