[address-policy-wg] 2006-07 Discussion Period extended until 29 November 2006 (Minimum IPv4 Assignment Window)

I support changing the assignment window to a /21 or even something larger.
When I worked for a company that was a RIPE LIR I found that the small AW
made it very difficult to do my job.  I feel it's more appropriate to give
LIRs information about how to make wise and documented assignments to
customers and then assume they're adults and that they will do the right
thing.  If they fail in this then make it harder for them to get a
subsequent allocation.  Making them ask permission for every customer
assignment is just a pain.

Thanks!
