  Correct!

  Which gets us closer to the core:

  I'd expect the NCC to start bothering the _LIRs_ (if they are still in
  business :-). Without having a clear mutual understanding of what the
  procedure would look like, who would have to endure all the finger-
  pointing and
  
	who would have to foot the bill
				(well the answer is obvious to me ;-)
	
  it is premature to ask for a YES or NO to "policy".
  
  Btw. I have already asked for an estimate about the number of ASs being
  available for recycling, and for a guestimate on the extension of the
  16bit AS number version's lifetime.

  I am not aware of any data or discussion, but I might have missed it.
