It is no longer "specify how many addresses do you > need?", but a boolean "do you need more than 0 addresses? yes/no". > Demonstrating the need for 1 IPv4 address is, in my opinion, merely a > formality - anyone could do that with almost no effort. <specific bit> However, I know of several organisations who refer to the requirement to require IP address when asking for them from customers using the line: "We have to be able to justify the needs basis to get address space from RIPE and they require us to make sure that you have a need for the address space too" By removing a need at the LIR/RIR boundary you will create a problem at the Customer/LIR boundary. So keeping the text about need but removing the conservation goal bit is actually a desirable outcome. <general bit> I think the goal of making life easier is nice but I fear we are rearranging deck chairs again :) J -- James Blessing 07989 039 476
