Re: [address-policy-wg] new policy idea for PA allocations

Remco,

Could someone submit another request immediately afterwards though,
since current policies are based on need?
if you again qualify for another allocation you can come back for one. If
that's immediate, it's immediate.
What's the point? If I qualify for a /15 and I want a /15 but all the
RIR has available is a bunch of /18s, I'll take those /18s.
The point is quite simple - why bother being strict in allocating small
blocks when in the end you're going to hand them over to a single
request anyway. I don't want anyone filing a request that cleans out the
cupboard in one go.

So, you're proposing the addition of increased administrative overhead (in the form of requiring multiple applications for address space to obtain the amount of address space originally requested) as a mechanism to reduce the demand on the fragmented pool?

Thanks,
-drc
