Allocation policy change reminder:

As of 1st August 2000 (next Monday), the RIPE NCC will apply the 
change in policy agreed during the last RIPE meeting by which the 
size of MINIMUM allocation will be a /20.

Allocations of this size will initially be made from CIDR block 217/8.

If you use prefix length filtering in your routers, please take this 
into consideration.

For a complete list of default allocation sizes you can read RIPE 
document "Size of smallest allocations in CIDR blocks allocated by 
the RIPE NCC", available at 
http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/internet-registries.html

Regards,
Joao Damas
Head of External Services
RIPE NCC
