[address-policy-wg] About the /22 allocation limitation

Hi Everyone,

First of all, my name is Daniel and Im the Network Administrator of the 
AS199952

Im new to the address policy wg and Im sure you can answer the question.

The /22 allocation restriction to new LIRs are only for new LIRs or for 
all LIRs? We only got a /22 as new LIR, and we cant ask for more IPs, 
proving we need it or not.
I know, this is a recursive discussion, but I wonder if old LIRs can ask 
for more IPs or they are restricted as new LIRs are.

For all people who are going to say "Move to IPv6" I already did it. 
About 75% of my network is IPv6 ready. 100% of our backbone network is 
IPv6 but, as all of you can see, only 18% of the World ASes are IPv6 ( 
http://v6asns.ripe.net/v/6?s=_ALL;s=_RIR_APNIC;s=_RIR_AfriNIC;s=_RIR_ARIN;s=_RIR_LACNIC;s=_RIR_RIPE_NCC;s=ES 
) and IPv6 wont work for anybody if the rest of the world isnt IPv6 ready.

To be honest, I think IPv6 will not be ready before lot of us (new 
lirs)run out of IPv4 address while old LIRs have thousands and thousands 
of unused IP address and they sell them for really expensive price. I 
saw one in the listing service asking for at least 2 digits per IP... 2 
digits! for something they got for free in the past.

Again, I know, IPv4 is exhausted but this cant be used for making lot 
and fast money from new LIRs that only have /22 allocation and need more.

I wonder if a change proposal of the policy to allow to ask for more 
IPs, of course proving the use of the ones you already have, and only 
giving /24's would be accepted by the community or I will get flamed for 
making the proposal.

Please, feel free to discuss about this if you are going to say 
something usefull.

PS: Sorry about my english, if I didnt explained well about something, 
just tell me. I will not feel offended.

Kind Regards,
