If we tweak the netmask one bit to the left, from /29 to /28, then all
that will happen is that we'll be talking about 1m customers instead
of 1/2m, but the underlying problem will still be there, and unsolved.
That is why we need to discuss and try to fix the underlying problem.
The above succinctly summarises my thoughts about this policy proposal.
It seems to just kick the can down the road.
Is it truly the case the an LIRs with >500k active subscribers all ready
to be assigned /48s will *not* receive an initial allocation of a /28,
if they request one? I see this argument is being made, but I have a
hard time believing it, if I am being honest. I do not understand how
the NCC could possibly refuse such a request based on section 5.1.2 in
the policy.
