I would be against a policy proposal in this form. It would unequal to 
the members and would create more hassle for everyone (introducing the 
need based justification again, after we have just removed it...that 
would be the worst idea)

Considering the size of the available and reserved pool, and noticing 
that it's mostly going up and not down, I would, support a policy 
proposal that would change the /22 in a /21 (for example). All members 
that already received a /22 could receive a second one, all members that 
have not requested a /22 from the last /8, could request a /21.
