[address-policy-wg] stockpiling IPv6

Hi Jordi,

what is the problem you want to solve? 

Is the ‘IPv6 stockpiling’ creating any issues?

As far as I know, we have plenty of IPv6 available and by forcing return or imposing conditions on mergers/transfers you only create hurdles for the people that actually use IPv6.

I’d say this is a non problem and actually advise RIPE NCC RS to stop tracking/presenting on this unless this issue causes them complications in justifying additional allocation requests from the IANA.
