[address-policy-wg] 2015-05 Discussion Period extended until 13 May 2016 (Last /8 Allocation Criteria Revision)

As we all know, there are lot of big LIRs with plenty of unused (or 
wasted) space, and now they are making serious business selling their 
classes. With a current price of about 10€/IP, it's easy to understand 
how big are interests behind this: some LIRs could make M€ just by 
selling something they obtained for free some years ago. It's clear that 
we can't "generate" more IPv4, but IMHO this is totally against a fair 
market. A new LIR with just a /22 shouldn't be charged like one with 
tons of /12: if having lot of IPv4 would be anti-economical for big 
LIRs, this would be a *real* incentivation for IPv6 deployment and 
return of IPv4. I'm not a lawyer, but probabily this problem should be 
reviewd by European Commission for Competition.
