I think the policy should maybe be adjusted in a way that the only legitimate reason for taking over IP-space is taking over existing customers and continue the service which is running on the IP-Space. The normal procedure of closing a LIR must be withdrawing all resources assigned to that LIR and only if you can present good arguments why a renumbering of customers is not possible, you might keep the address-space. I mean, I also needed to renumber my about 2000 used IPv6-PI addresses when I became LIR as I had to return the IPv6-PI (I know, now there's a proposal on the way to stop that for V6, but that's different thing). -- Opteamax GmbH - RIPE-Team Jens Ott Opteamax GmbH Simrockstr. 4b 53619 Rheinbreitbach Tel.: +49 2224 969500 Fax: +49 2224 97691059 Email: jo at opteamax.de HRB: 23144, Amtsgericht Montabaur Umsatzsteuer-ID.: DE264133989
