Dear colleagues
The APNIC Secretariat has now implemented two policy proposals that reached consensus at the APNIC 25 Policy SIG in Taipei, Taiwan in February 2008. The APNIC Executive Council (EC) endorsed the proposals during their May 2008 meeting. The two policy changes are:
prop-053: Changing minimum IPv4 allocation size to /22
- The minimum allocation size has been reduced to /22 - Two of the criteria for an initial allocation have been updated to show: - An LIR must have used a /24 from their upstream provider or demonstrate an immediate need for a /24 - An LIR must demonstrate a detailed plan for use of a /23 within a year
prop-057: Proposal to change IPv6 initial allocation criteria
- Current LIRs with an existing IPv4 allocation from APNIC or an NIR can now justify an IPv6 initial allocation without documenting a plan for making 200 assignments
The comment period for the draft documents incorporating these policies has ended. The updated documents are now officially active:
Policies for IPv4 address space management in the Asia Pacific region http://www.apnic.net/policy/add-manage-policy.html
IPv6 address allocation and assignment policy http://www.apnic.net/policy/ipv6-address-policy.html
APNIC guidelines for IPv6 allocation and assignment requests http://www.apnic.net/policy/ipv6-guidelines.html
For more information on the history of the policy proposals, see:

thank you!
randy & jian, for the sig
Perhaps of historical interest:
When APNIC first started handing out blocks of addresses in 1994, the minimum allocation size was a /22.
Only took 14 years to get back to the beginning... :-)
