IPv4 and ASN Policy draft on-line

Hi Per,

The following section describes the policy you describe in your mail. 
The second section (starting with "However, for services that are 
permanently connected...") addresses the change as described in 
Paula's mail from 1999:

- -
5.1.9   Static assignments
Due to constraints on the available free pool of IPv4 address space,
the use of static IP address assignments (e.g., one address per
customer) for dial-up users is strongly discouraged.  Organisations
considering the use of static IP address assignment are expected to
investigate and implement dynamic assignment technologies whenever
possible. If assignments for static assignments are indeed made,
special verification procedures apply. However, for services that are
permanently connected to the Internet, static one-to-one connections
is considered acceptable. Verification of usage will in these cases
take place when the LIR is requesting approval for additional
assignments. Please contact the RIPE NCC for details on applicable
verification methods.

I hope this answered your question.
However, if you feel that this text does not correctly reflect the 
actual policy, please join the editorial committee and we can work 
together on rewording it.

Kind regards,

Nurani Nimpuno
RIPE NCC
