    Perhaps not, but an X month period after the inital allocation to the
RIR where they don't assign out of that pool might be wise. Perhaps e-mails
can be sent to the registered contacts of existing IP space upon initial
allocation, on the first of each month, and then on the last day of the
hold.

    I know that I am sometimes a bit too busy to take care of something like
that at the very instant I get the e-mail, and that it can fall to the
wayside. Many times a reminder e-mail has come at a moment where I was able
do to something about it.
