    the context of the statement I quoted.

Absolutely, this was a slightly off-topic anecdote regarding your initial comment.


    "RIPE" neither agrees nor disagrees with anything.  "The RIPE NCC" might
    disagree, but usually it's a question of proper arguments.

    The large assignments to DTAG, de.government, etc., didn't happen "just so"
    either, but required quite a bit of documentation and showing numbers.

I'm not arguing that large allocations should be made without scrutiny, however it feels that the scrutiny currently imposed by the RIPE NCC is overly zealous and in some regards, contradictory to certain parts of RIPE policy.

Happy to continue this particular discussion on the APWG list, or privately with the chairs.
