Is ripe allocating /24's?

[Sean Donelan <SEAN () SDG DRA COM>]

A provider has made the claim to me that RIPE is allocating /24's
addresses to various European providers.  Is this true?  What affect
does this have on providers with prefix-length filters?

Or is this provider just mis-reading the RIPE allocation database.

It isn't always clear at what point RIPE has delegate something,
and at what point a provider has registered a more specific route
since the delegation and routing database appear to be merged in
the RIPE model.  And in fact the RBnet could aggregate many of these
announcements.
