[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2014-16: Section 4.10 Austerity Policy Update

If this proposal is implemented, blocks recovered from IANA would be 
distributed in sizes no larger than /22.
Does anybody know if the /11 just received has to stay at that size in 
inventory, or can it also be broken down?
I would be more likely to support this proposal if the recent IANA /11 can 
not be split if it stays in the general pool, but would be split if it goes 
into the 4.10 pool.

Policy Update

+1 to everything below.

However in addition to the currently reserved /10, I would like to
suggest we also designate any allocations from the IANA recovered IPv4
pool defined in section 10.5, including the /11 just received as
reserved for use by this Austerity Policy as well.

If the community wants to do this it would be good to get a clear
consensus from the community ASAP.  So, if necessary the Board could
take actions necessary to ensure events don't overtake such a change.

Thanks.
