* David Farmer > you asked about "operational need" not "fairness"; [citation needed] I seem to remember my question being: «In a state of scarcity, what is "fair"?» While discussing the amendment: «Fair use: Public IPv4 address space must be fairly distributed to the End Users operating networks.» And finally asking you to provide a reference to the «primary definition of fairness the RIR communities have been using». So the discussion was never about "fairness"? Hmm. English is only a secondary language of mine, so I guess I must have misunderstood you. Apologies. > 1) Allocation Pool Management: Due to the fixed lengths of IP > addresses and AS numbers, the pools from which these resources > are allocated are finite.

So depending on how you look at it, either: A (if ignoring the "last /8 pool"): The RIPE NCC's allocation pool is empty. No point in talking about the Management of an Allocation Pool that does not exist. B (if including the "last /8 pool"): I've proposed to retain the current requirement that LIRs must use the last /22 allocation for making assignments to its End Users. Either way, case closed? Tore
