They said that just before CIDR happened, too.
>From the routing-table summary posted to the NANOG list this morning:
Number of addresses announced to Internet: 1348239976
Equivalent to 80 /8s, 92 /16s and 130 /24s
Percentage of available address space announced: 36.4
Percentage of allocated address space announced: 58.8
Percentage of available address space allocated: 61.9
So 40% isn't even *allocated* yet (saying that we're probably burning /8's
faster than needed, but only 36% of the available space is actually routed.
Sounds to me like we've got more time than 52 months, if we start doing
stuff now to increase the usage efficiencies....
