I agree with Marco here. The policy (RIPE-481) states: 5.4.1. Assignment address space size End Users are assigned an End Site assignment from their LIR or ISP. The size of the assignment is a local decision for the LIR or ISP to make, using a minimum value of a /64 (only one subnet is anticipated for the End Site). With kind regards, ir. A.W.

That's not the point. A /60 assignment is wrong. If software developers and equipment vendors get the idea that /60 is normal, then they will embed that assumption in their products and it will make the transition from 6RD to native v6 more difficult.
You keep repeating this but which document or standard says /60 is wrong ?
There is no need to make customer assignments smaller than /56.
But why ? I can imagine /60 is enough for Joe the plumber even if sensor networks would take off... MarcoH
