[address-policy-wg] inputs on possible policy proposal for IPv6

Hi Sebastian,

As said, is just an idea, and I'm not yet nailing down all the details, but I don't think, in general, and ISP that has advanced his deployment, will renumber ... so of course I will not suggest that as mandatory, only an option in case some want to do (there are a few ISPs that got their /29 and didn't deployed IPv6 at all, so it make sense for them).

On the other side, it will be nice, in order to understand how much is the impact of this, if the NCC can provide a summary of how many of the actual RIRs that have a non-nibble boundary allocation, will not be able to get it upgraded to the nibble-boundary one because the precedent space has been already allocated to someone else, etc.

Regards,
Jordi

    Hi,
    
    I'm not sure I see the big benefit of upgrading to a /28 but on a
    purely technical standpoint, "upgrading" is not possible in most cases
    because RIPE NCC did not reserve a complete /28 for every LIR. So you
    would end up with two /29 or you'd have to renumber your /29 to a new
    /28.
    
    Both options don't sound appealing to me.
    
    Regards
    
    Sebastian
