*** CHANGES IN RIPE NCC ADDRESS POLICY ***
During the RIPE 36 meeting in Budapest (16-19 May 2000) the LIR
working group agreed that the RIPE NCC will:
- lower the minimum allocation from a /19 to a /20.
- this change will take effect starting August 1
Allocations of this size will initially be issued from CIDR block 217/8.
Minimum allocations do not constrain requests for address space that
can justify bigger blocks of addresses.
