[address-policy-wg] Next steps for new LIRs

Hi Aleksi,

Thanks for your email,

Can you please give me some example of developing countries that are
"skipping IPv4 completely"? I think there are still  good numbers that need
to use IPv4 because of their developing stage. (no matter how hard community
policies make it for them, when there is no IPv6 option they just can't use
it). 

If we as the community are looking for additional distribution of last /8
(as suggested by Yuri), I think It would be better to consider their
conditions too. 

Regards,

Arash Naderpour

Honestly? Most developing countries are skipping IPv4 completely or as much
as possible. If Iran has really banned IPv6 they deserve to pay themselves
sick for IPv4. Furthermore, RIPE NCC does not have enough
IPv4 addresses to give Iranians, even if we as a community wished for a
special Iranian policy.
