LISP EIDs do not have any requirement for hierarchy. The policies and processes appropriate for the allocation of IP addresses do not appear to me to necessarily be applicable to the allocation of LISP EIDs. If LISP is successful, whether the RIRs choose to become LISP EID allocators is likely a business decision they’ll need to make. I personally do not think it appropriate to assume they will make that decision.
