[ppml] IPv4 Soft Landing - Discussion andSupport/Non-SupportRequested

Since you asked...
 
It is unclear (to me, at least) whether or not the policy change in this
proposal will achieve its stated goals.  However, I don't think the
policy will hurt things as the available IPv4 address space approaches
exhaustion.
 
I don't expect to need any additional IPv4 space -- the /24 we got 16
years ago is sufficient for our needs, particularly with NAT.
 
Therefore, I don't have an objection to this proposal.
 
Keith

"I don't have objection to this proposal"...seems to abdicate
responsibility to others who have stronger feelings.

If we think of the ppml in the context of 'show of hands'.... You are
neither raising your hand FOR nor AGAINST....

 

I for one could like a clearer declaration if you can arrive at one
before we have to judge consensus.

 

Sorry...you were convenient 'to pick on' for this reiteration of the ACs
need for clear guidance by the industry.... ;-)

With the explanation that the 100% efficient utilization of the previous
IP allocation is part of the current requirements, I think I understand
how this proposal fits in with the current policies.

 

I don't have an objection to this proposal.

I was told by ARIN staff that 100% utilization of all previous
allocations is an _existing_ requirement.
