personally, i have no answer.

We seem to be coming to the bottom of the pit :-)

sorry to make you read all this rubbish to find that.

Fine with me.

why not show a bit of wimsey and block out 42 /32 chunks for this and have a three month bidding period to see how much money the rirs can collect to donate to heal some of the horrifying wounds of the latest natural disaster or unnatural us imperialism?

Aah, so this time at least we don't want to raise money for poor routers, but for victims of some sort of disaster or another. And why 42? (other than being "this" universal number) Wouldn't we be able to raise more money if we would give away more prefixes ;-) Or maybe just 32 x /32? Funny times, Wilfried.
