I take a bit of offense here. We did what we could to "protect the newcomers" with the "last /22" policy, but "gone is gone" - there just is not enough v4, what else could we have done?
No need to take offense - it's normal for our species to want to assign blame when we're upset, and even more normal to want to fling poo at other people to show how upset we are. It's not as if ipv4 exhaustion snuck up on everyone unnoticed. If people don't like how things were handled, then why they didn't pipe up with their suggestions while the problem was being discussed any time over the last 25 years? It seems a bit odd to start complaining at the point that the registries were scraping the last bits of address space from the bottom of the barrel. Nick
