James:
  That's for allocation to ISP's. The RFC refered to end user utilization
of the address space (see http://www.arin.net/regserv/ip-assignment.html).
I've seen some ISP's incorrectly quote the 80% utilization to customers
and expect them to achieve that before assigning them more IP address
space.
