Hello,
I'am new here, from land of massive PI requests ;)

We are LIR providing SponsorLIR service for little ISPs in Poland.
Providing /24 as the smallest entity is a good idea in my opinion, 
however because little ISPs "wake up" recently willing to replace their 
i.e. /22 PA to PI (to be multihomed and independent) I hope that getting 
more than /24 will still be possible - of course if still available in 
RIR resources.
