[ipv6-wg] additional IPv6 allocation (ripe-512 issues)

All correct. The current policy doesn't permit the RIPE NCC to give out extra address space for an existing allocation until the HD ratio has been reached. They are allowed to give more than a /32 when someone requests a new allocation though. I have had this same issue and I got the same answer.

After reading the policies with this in mind I can only conclude that the RIPE NCC is implementing the policy correctly. If we want the NCC to do something else someone has to write a policy proposal.

Thanks,
Sander
