Not to stir an already boiling over pot and all, but is there any kind of report or documentation on releasing of space from countries other then the North American region?
Really it's mainly US govt agencies, defence contractors, etc from the dawn of the Internet who hold legacy class A space of this type. This space was pre-RIR which means it was not assigned on the same (broadly similar) global policies as the majority of address space in the modern era. On that basis, there's nothing big for other regions to 'give up'. One exception is the UK government with two /8s. http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space/ipv4-address-space.txt http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assigned_/8_IPv4_address_blocks
