I think it's important we give networks fixed size prefixes to lessen the need for restructuring and renumbering when changing provider. So I would say /64, /48, /48. The ISP's who have got the /20-ish space already have planned this, I suspect. It's the ones trying to run an ISP off a /32 that haven't?
