Actually, as I read the policy, if you're not assigning /48s to other organizations, your an END SITE, not an LIR. Please show me where in the policy it says different. Sure, I can easily pretend to be the "internal" LIR for the "200 sub- organizations" which may conveniently map to sites, but, there's nothing in the policy (at least in my reading of it) that says anything like what you have said below. I think the policy _SHOULD_ make provisions for end sites and circumstances like this, but, currently, I believe it _DOES NOT_ make such a provision.

Why do people keep talking about 200 sites? This is a fallacy.
If you're not assigning IP addresses to other users, (I.e. you're an Enterprise rather than an ISP) you need 200 sites. (As you're "allowed" one /48 per site, and need 200 /48s to get an assignment.) RIPE policy is pretty much identical to ARIN.
