As the global routing information *does* affect ourselves as well, you
can be assured that we won't (all) loose that aspect out of focus.

The policy change in question had *exactly* this in mind: avoid people
going for 2 or more PI prefixes just because they were not allowed
to get *one* PA allocation.  

So please: constructive criticism is welcome, but things like "all
that you do is wrong, because APNIC is doing something!" (and no 
further reason or detail given) are just wasting our time.
