The plan is to allocate 32-bit blocks to RIRs as a continuous range. That's why APNIC starts at 131072, RIPE NCC at 196608, LACNIC at 262144 and so on. We are likely to be retired or dead by the time APNIC needs 196607. So it is unlikely that we will see allocations to RIRs from the 65552-131071 range for a very long time, if ever as the same pattern can start again until we hit 4199999999. Numbers from the 65552-131071 range are only likely to be assigned for some other reason, based on the IANA Considerations section in an RFC. Regards, Leo
