Hello Alexey,

I certainly would like to see some more pressure on ISPs to get moving with 
IPv6, but I don't think it is in RIPE's power to reclaim once issued IPv4 
space.

I wish I had magic powers that could enhance IPv6 adoption. But, alas I have 
not. All I have is a tiny bit of power of persuasion to entice my fellow 
Fidonet sysops to try "bottom up".

Cheers, Michiel
