If you just check from 01/01/99 to date then it looks linear or at least close to linear. I guess it *could* be that growing amount of new companies getting internet access is increasing. Is there any data that show "CIDR GAIN" from the cidr report, so we can see if the increase corresponds to an increase in (perhaps unneccessary) smaller announcements in larger blocks, or if it is actually just a lot more blocks allocated that needs to be routed. Any stats on arin/ripe/apnic new allocations of blocks in the same timeframe? Both in terms of IP adresses and in number of blocks of IP adresses. This would also give us some kind of hint as to when IPv4 space will be exhausted (or are there already projections about this?) -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: [email protected]
