Quick question for the group..

How long should I be patient to wait for some /24s to become fully routable 
worldwide?

        forever.  - or until you clarify your terms.
        all addresses, regardless of origin, are inherently "fully routable
        worldwide" ...  but to instansiate this as a fact requires one of
        two things:
                ) you run -all- the routing infrastrucuture, "worldwide"
                or
                ) every entity that runs BGP or an IGP agrees to transit
                  your /24 to everyplace they have a path to.

        neither is likely - imho, so you -must- mean something else.
