[address-policy-wg] 2023-01 - New Version Policy Proposal (Reducing IXP IPv4 assignment default size to a /26)

Hi All,

I would like to express my support to this proposal.

It doesn't seem to tackle recovering IXP assignments made to orgs which 
are not really operating as IXPs, but is definitely a step in a positive 
direction.

Best Regards,
Carlos
