[ppml] Policy Proposal -- Limit Scope of Anonymous Allocations

Assuming 2003-3 will become policy (which, I suspect it will at this point),
I propose the following policy:

Any provider taking advantage of the residential customer privacy policy
shall comply with the following restrictions on that policy:

1.	Said provider must agree to address abuse complaints about
	any blocks which are assigned under that policy promptly.

2.	No provider shall assign a block larger than a /27 under the
	privacy provisions of the policy.

3.	No customer of a given provider shall be given more than one
	assignment under the policy, except, for a period of time not
	exceeding 90 days for the purpose of renumbering into a larger
	or smaller allocation (overlap for renumbering).

4.	Any provider which has already assigned resources under the
	privacy policy which are in violation of these restrictions
	shall make reasonable effort to bring said assignments into
	compliance.  No provider shall be discriminated against for
	future allocations on the basis of such violations until
	one year from the date these restrictions become effective.
	After that, no provider in violation of these restrictions
	shall receive additional resources from ARIN until such time
	as that provider complies.

Argument in favor of this proposal:

Ordinarily, I'd advocate waiting and seeing how the new policy impacts
things before proposing an amendment.  However, given the blank-check
nature of the new policy and the long cycle-time on any policy change,
I feel it is important to start this process immediately.  As such, I
am submitting this policy for consideration.

The proposed timetable for implementation would be immediately upon
adoption by the BOD, with phase-in as specified in the proposed policy.
