[members-discuss] is the self-assessment model really a good idea?

I suspect a lot of activities/resources will die off when the NCC stock of IPV4 addresses gets exhausted.  RIPE won't be involved or will be needed to approve transfer/sales of IPV4 between LIR's.   Most LIR's will have /32 of IPV6 so they won't need to talk to the LIR again unless in the unlikely event they issue a /48 or more to a customer...  

Please disagree if I'd got this wrong.

+1 in principle. Exact percentage should be assessed empirically.
