Route announcements are a 10-second-job. Will they actually _use_ the
space or just "trick around" to make an announcement visible?

This is exactly what I meant is flawed about giving weeks and months
of grace time. For many, you only give them time to make an "alibi
announcement" visibile. IMNSHO, if someone doesn't announce a block
for months, they _don't_use_it_. This means, if they actually care again
of _using_ it, they can reapply for a new block and obtain new addresses
quite quickly. With current, up-to-date contact information etc.

But then again, if this is what 6bone regards as being acceptable, then
who am I to complain. :-)

Just my unimportant ?0.02 ;-)
