Wow! A whole /24 – that’s pretty generous of you! What a large compromise
that is . . . .

that the folks who want to keep needs tests should somehow prevail in this
argument without much or any change, and those of us who wish to ditch them
should just accept the status quo with needs tests. In other words you win and
we lose!
I saw a lot of folks comment here recently who want to at least loosen needs
tests on the smaller block sizes, many many more than I've ever seen before.
Since it is obvious a sizable portion of this community desires a change toward
loosening policies, why is it that you persist in standing in the way of
compromise?
As for me, I think relaxing (not eliminating needs assessment at a /24 boundary
is plenty of compromise.
See Andrew Dul's most recent mail for possible scenario's.

There comes a time when fair is fair - and small organizations are routinely
discriminated against because of our small size and not so deep pockets. There
is a lot of anger out there over the unfairness of these existing policies. It
should be just as easy for us to get resources as it was for T-Mobile and
others. I call on all members of this community to at least come to a
compromise. After all the world hasn't ended for RIPE with their changes - and
it won't end here either if fairness is put back into the policies so that
small organizations can get the resources they need too!

Indeed, it does. However, many people have also repeatedly stood up in defense
of needs basis, so singling me out as if I am the lone supporter of preserving
needs basis is as specious as many of your other arguments.
