I'd like to echo this point.

>>Sorry IPv6 BGP table, policy got in the way again!

We already have enough table bloat with the fragmentation of IPv4.

This is horrible that we have to make it worse, especially right now when it could be done the right way going into it.

I will point out that these are fees, not policy. The AC has no role in fees and they are set by fiat of the board rather than through the public policy process.

I am not thrilled with the new fee structure, either, especially since it does an end-run on expectations created in the early days of the LRSA.

As long as organisations have the option of re-numbering the financial incentive on ARIN's side of the table would just result in inconveniencing smaller organisations. The ones who want to save money and have an easy opportunity to re-number now, will do so.

4,096 /48's in a /36 is still a lot of space. If/when we fill that properly, we can just get another /36 at that point and save money between now and then.

Sorry IPv6 BGP table, policy got in the way again!

it seems like 234 members who have x-small v4 and small v6 are faced
with being charged under small when they (probably) would have been just
as happy if their initial allocation was a /36 and thus stayed in
x-small.


Looked at another way, this is an additional $234K in revenue per year for ARIN per year.  Not insignificant. (Yes, we're one of the affected early-adopters.)
