Hmm are we really sure we want to have this part in here?
"This section only applies to address space that is returned to the RIPE
NCC and that will not be returned to the IANA but re-issued by the RIPE
NCC itself."

I do see the point of it yes, but what if a huge block are returned, one
that could go back to IANA and be reused for something that all can
benefit from?
... and we have no idea what it can be since we can't predict the future.

Do we change the policy again at that point or when thing change?



other than that, support this policy. It do make it pretty clear on how
IPv4 are handled in the near-comming future.
