    > If a single permanent allocation that never changes is truly

Allocation != reservation. Nobody is asking for the entire chunk to be
_allocated_ (i.e. given out), just that it be _reserved_ for this use.


[WEG] You're hairsplitting on semantics in a way that is mostly unhelpful to 
the discussion at hand. Reserving the block for LISP means that it cannot be 
used for anything else. Whether that's an IANA reservation or an RIR allocation 
is really immaterial to the point I was making, which is that if you truly 
believe we have to identify a block once and for all for LISP that is the 
correct size to be used permanently and indefinitely, you need a better 
justification than you've given, and using "experimental" as a justification 
for not having the details worked out isn't going to be acceptable.
