For those who didn't hear my comments at the meeting: RFC 3779 doesn't
allow overlaps.  Checking whether a ROA is covered by an RFC 3779
certificate is a bit easier if one doesn't need to implement the merge
operation necessary to allow overlaps when converting from a ROA to an
RFC 3779 resource set.  If there's a useful purpose served by allowing
overlaps, fine, I'll implement the merge, but until Ruidiger's
comments today I had not heard anybody claim that allowing these
overlaps serves a useful purpose.

So at this point I'm waiting for the outcome of the discussion between
Randy and Ruidiger to find out whether these overlaps are useful.
