Neither dtag nor the other entities that you mentioned, are using the<br>
resources that they have been allocated, and could possibly do with less<br>
of, are using their IP space for large scale network abuse so i do wish<br>
you wouldn't make such comparisons<br>
</blockquote>
<br></div>
Who did a comparison here ?<br>
I didnt.<br>
<br>
Those are different facts (abusers, wasters, stupid protocols<br>
and far too big legacy chunks along with stupid ERX blocks spreaded<br>
and wasted all over the place) all ending up in wasted address space.<br>
<br>
<br>
The question is, if the community likes to collects these netblocks<br>
back to give it away to people that need some, in much smaller<br>
chunks.<br>
<br>
Or if we are too lazy (simply because it would be quite difficult)<br>
and then push IPv6 forward (what will exhaust one day too, simply<br>
because we waste them already).<br>
<br>
In this case Ronald is quite right ...<br>
<br>
I personally wondered why IPv6 was started before the IPv4<br>
space was cleaned up, somehow typical I would say ...<br>
<br>
<br>
Kind regards, Frank<br>

Hm, you would probably have more time, when bringing your mails<br>
down to facts instead of writing lines and lines of lyrics ...<br>
<br>
Nearly all IPv4 space has been given to people and companies.<br>
There is nearly nothing left you could give away ...<br>
<br>
All these resources, if managed properly, sensibly, and without<br>
profligate<br>
waste and short-term driven exploitation, could be easily rendered<br>
<br>
<br>
I agree, that there are many many IPv4 addresses currentyl wasted,<br>
unused like all these big class-A blocks they gave to the<br>
NSA, HP, Apple aso, wich can never proof a need of that many IPs for<br>
servers and equipment.<br>
<br>
And there are stupid big block reservations for protocols nobody<br>
actually uses, like internal networks, multicast aso.<br>
They could be reduced to a single Class-B for example ...<br>
<br>
There are also lots of blocks given to people and companies that<br>
do illegal or unwanted things, at least in some countries ...<br>
<br>
And there are lots of big blocks wasted with companies (I would<br>
say typically access providers), that are really to stupid<br>
to configure there equipment right and instead ordered<br>
more and more IPs (an example: the German DTAG could only<br>
give access to 80 Million people maximum, guess how many<br>
IPs they have for access purpose ?)<br>
<br>
All those IPs could be used much better and probably last a very<br>
long time ...<br>
<br>
<br>
But: those netblocks have been given to the resource holders<br>
under the regulations of that time.<br>
Do you really want to change the regulations now, to take<br>
resources "back" ?<br>
<br>
You have have to be "Robin Hood" to achieve that ...<br>
<br>
<br>
Good luck, Frank<br>
<br>
infinitely renewable, could be handed down, by us, largely if<br>
not entirely<br>
intact, not merely to the next generation, but also to their<br>
descendants,<br>
forever.<br>
<br>
But homo sapiens clearly has not reached that understanding yet.<br>
He is<br>
still out walking across that frozen land bridge from Asia into the<br>
Americans, and all the way down to Tierra Del Fuego, perpetually in<br>
search of new space to invade, conquer, exploit, lay waste to,<br>
and then,<br>
as always move on. This worked great for dozens of millennia. Alas<br>
it will not work forever.<br>
