Hi,

I would support this proposal with some amendments, first there should be a
'top-cap' on how many IPs a LIR can have and still request a new /22 every
18 months - for example if a LIR has an /20 equivalent or more already
assigned this LIR could not request new allocation (this has already been
pointed out on the list) and I think that there should also be a minimum
RIPE free space cap, where if we would reach somewhere in the range of /12
only new LIRs are eligible to get new /22 allocation.

This is to get new entrants in the market some more wiggle room against the
old players.

Sincerely,
Uros
