[address-policy-wg] IXP pool lower boundary of assignments

Hello,

I feel that /26 is the smallest reasonable subnet size for an IXP, no 
matter how small the IXP is initially. If it starts growing, it will 
quickly grow past /27, but might just stay inside the /26. This is based 
on empirical experience over the decades.

I do agree that it would be nice if the vendors took RFC 5549 seriously. 
A lot of IXPs would be ready to adopt it, if it was an option. It will 
create some headaches for route server scalability, but perhaps bird3 
will fix those... anyway I digress...

My two cents,

PS. I don't think Tore appreciates how much more difficult it is to 
renumber an IXP compared to a data centre or an access provider.
