Yes, I see your point, but we must try ...

I'm not meaning mandating to move to a production prefix, of course, but asking the RIRs to help those that want to move into
production, no new requirements (no consider them as starting from scratch) or even with lower fees or something like that.

May be you can comment if any off-line talks have already done with the RIRs ?

Regards,
Jordi
