I mean, come on, you're want a different /8 because a single /24 at the very end was reserved? And you're trying to convince us that the intelligent people in the AP have no way of coming to grips with the concept of "RESERVED"? Hell, just allocate that single /24 back to IANA and nobody has to deal with the earth shattering difficulty of translating RESERVED. Somebody has to deal with the issue of breaking the pretty aggregation due to the /24 at the end. Why does APNIC feel it shouldn't be them that must deal with this small problem? That region of the net certainly causes its share of problems.If APNIC doesn't want it, I'm sure I could find someone who does. :) Yes this is remarkably silly. What could possibly be broken by a reserved /24 out of a /8.
You're missing the issue that when you are assigned space, if part of it is already reserved that should be clearly spelled out. When you get a /8, you expect it to be fully usable. The APNIC posture here seems to make sense to me that its an issue that needs to be resolved. using one of the other currently reserved /8's while that issue plays out seems quite logical to me. - Jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared () puck nether net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
