Several people raised concerns that new LIRs may not have sufficient experience to make good decisions with a /21 AW. This is a valid concern but I do not believe a series of incremental AW raises would provide the most effective support to new LIRs. Instead, I have modified the proposal so that new LIRs would get a /21 AW six months after receiving their first allocation. They would need to send in requests as now until then. This should ensure that the LIRs most in need of support receive it, while reducing the administrative overhead for the vast majority of LIRs.
I like this more than the previous one, but still some questions remain: - what about the AW for existing LIRs? Will it be auto-raised to /21 as well? - what about the AW size *after* the initial raise? Can it be reduced to less than a /21 - and if yes, under which conditions, and at what time will it grow back? Sounds like nitpicking, but if I have learnt one thing in the last years, it is "make the policy clear!" :-) Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- Total number of prefixes smaller than registry allocations: 98999 SpaceNet AG Mail: netmaster@Space.Net Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 14 Tel : +49-89-32356-0 D- 80807 Muenchen Fax : +49-89-32356-234
