Hi Andreas! >I have don't think that this should be an imperative. Do you really think >that LIRs should not be able to request such an allocation on behalf of >a customer that would like to do that? Sorry, my question was meant "the-other-way-'round": that a request has to come by way of an established LIR "in good standing" (this of course includes "friendly" existing LIRs offering the service for the project :-). I just wanted to be sure that we don't open a by-pass channel to the LIR structure. >If someone finds it cumbersome to renumber because he has to return the >resources granted to do dns anycasting he probably should not apply for >this resource ;-) Well, the picture might be a bit more complex, in particular for TLDs, when they have to "please" the IANA and/or ICANN to get a re-delegation at a certain point in time ;-) And I haven't yet thought to the bottom of how thing would look like if this becomes a service for supporting many zones, and all of them have to be renumbered because of an interaction with this "special assignment requirement"... >Cheers >Andreas Cheers/Servus, Wilfried. PS: and slightly off-topic: I honestly dislike special arrangements in general - when they are meant to punch holes into too restrictive general resource management rules. We have built too many cans of worms in the past doing so...
