Which does not mean these networks are unused and/or reclaimable. (And does not mean otherwise, too) > The negative consequences of trading address space outweigh the > positive ones. Trading address space is going to come, whether we like it or not. If we can get people to use the white market instead of the black market, good. But markets either colour will exist. Of course, if every DFZ-routing party cooperates with the RIRs and/or routing registries, black markets can be counteracted. But you tell me the odds of that happening ;) Yours, Elmar.
