I’m not convinced there’s any point in having a waiting list or maintaining an expensive bureauracy to oversee the dregs of the dregs of v4. IMO, once the NCC is unable to allocate /22s to new LIRs, it’s game over. v4 is finally exhausted. Get over it.
That's a fair point of view, but that's not what current policy actually says, so you'd need to change the policy to get that in any case. Should be a simple proposal: Any returned/reclaimed IPv4 space should simply be passed on to the IANA Recovered IPv4 Pool, and the NCC should say «no thanks» to any further allocations from the IANA (or instantly return them if declining them outright is not possible). At least we'd be finally free of the multi-LIR abusers and their bitching about having to pay their invoices on members-discuss that way... Tore
