Provider feedback Aleron=BAD!

RFC 2050 infers something different:

2 Allocation Framework

2.1 Guidelines for Internet Service Providers (ISPs)
This document makes a distinction between the allocation of IP addresses
and the assignment of IP addresses. Addresses are allocated to ISPs by
regional registries to assign to its customer base.

ISPs who exchange routing information with other ISPs at multiple
locations and operate without default routing may request space directly
from the regional registry in its geographical area. ISPs with no
designated regional registry may contact any regional registry and the
regional registry may either handle the request or refer the request to an
appropriate registry.
