Actually, as I read the policy, if you're not assigning /48s to other
organizations, your an END SITE, not an LIR. Please show me where in
the policy it says different.

Sure, I can easily pretend to be the "internal" LIR for the "200 sub-
organizations" which may conveniently map to sites, but, there's nothing
in the policy (at least in my reading of it) that says anything like
what you have said below.

I think the policy _SHOULD_ make provisions for end sites and circumstances
like this, but, currently, I believe it _DOES NOT_ make such a provision.

Why do people keep talking about 200 sites?  This is a fallacy.

If you're not assigning IP addresses to other users, (I.e. you're an
Enterprise rather than an ISP) you need 200 sites. (As you're "allowed"
one /48 per site, and need 200 /48s to get an assignment.) RIPE policy is
pretty much identical to ARIN.
