I have just joined the list and received my new 44 ip again, about 17 years I left my old one.
We can not define our network having to trust ISP to announce parts of the 44 network for free.
I think that most we could do may be asking universities and so to route those kind of 44 address blocks, maybe per country (or bigger blocks if possible)... and then try to route the traffic tunneling (GRE probed to be a good solution some years ago with the open wireless free network projects) or via radio if the distance allow us to do it.
Of course, asking one individual to arrange with his DSL provider one /32 or a /24 announced ... is not realistic. At least in Spain, EA.

Seriously though, I agree with those who are on the side of making 44-net MORE accessible and beneficial to average Amateur Radio Operators. Requiring CCNA/CCIE level networking knowledge is not the way to go. The IP-IP/RIP44 tunnel system is complicated enough, but at least it can be done with easily available hardware and Linux. I also agree that most ISP's are not going to want to advertise chunks of 44-net without someone paying for it.
I would like to see a backup to the UCSD gateway, but understand that would be complicated for a variety of reasons.

The University of Iowa being one of them (128.255.0.0/16) :-). It's where I work.

Actually there is a big difference. Within 44.x.x.x you have safe IP addressing. It is impossible to have address conflicts with any other network if you interconnect.
This reminds me of a company I worked for many years ago, which chose 128.x.x.x as its internal IP address space.
Yes, there were certain external sites they could not visit.
Yes, they went out of business (in 2002).
