I'll reply only to your question "> Fix IPv6 rate adoption by policy? " Carlos, this policy proposal aims to fix IPv4 rate depletion... so why don't use a policy for "rate adoption"? do you see any difference? Rest is personal opinion and from my point of view any conservative policy will only last the pain longer. thank you regards Riccardo <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Il 24/09/2017 15:09, Carlos Fria�as ha scritto: </div> <blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:alpine.LRH.2.21.1709241302060.26069@gauntlet.corp.fccn.pt"> Hi Riccardo, All, Thanks for your input.

Strictly i consider a new entrant as an organization which doesn't own any IPv4 or IPv6 address space. Loosely, it can be a new LIR (before getting its /22 and an IPv6 block under current policy)... But, luckly the community approved a policy for the last /8 long before 2015. If that didn't happen, your only solution would have been to rely on the market. </blockquote> <blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:alpine.LRH.2.21.1709241302060.26069@gauntlet.corp.fccn.pt"> <blockquote type="cite">In the last 2 years I heard about a couple of time "no more IPv4 policies let's go over and think how to fix/help IPv6 rate adoption" but today we are still here complaining what's the best way to last longer with the agony. </blockquote> Is "no more IPv4 policies" written in stone somewhere? :-) Fix IPv6 rate adoption by policy?

The RIPE community is not able to design policies regarding address space which was distributed before the NCC's creation. <blockquote type="cite">Today you can simply choose to go RIPE or market as your feeling to get IPv4/6 if needed. </blockquote> If the choice is going to the "market" (and if you are in strict sense a new entrant), the "market" will not advocate you should use/deploy IPv6.

The goal was to extend v4 availability for some more time, thus making life easier for IPv6 deployments that will still need to talk with the v4 world. <blockquote type="cite">- a clear side effect of market price rise on IPv4 </blockquote> This proposal is not about the "market". a /24 can cost X, Y or Z over time. The only way we can keep "affordability" for new entrants is by defining what they get from the NCC, not from any 3rd party. <blockquote type="cite">- a disincentive to route aggregation </blockquote> I don't agree. /22s (and bigger chunks) are already being announced as /24s. What we consider is that keeping the "affordability" for new entrants is a bigger priority than keeping the DFZ on 683k (today) instead of 725k, 750k or even 800k routes. I know 800k routes looks insane, but two years ago 683k would have been equally insane :-)) ps: On 24-09-2015 (two years ago), 572876 routes <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150924225101/https://www.cidr-report.org/as2.0/">https://web.archive.org/web/20150924225101/https://www.cidr-report.org/as2.0/</a> Thanks!
