[arin-ppml] Statistics regarding NRPM 8.3 Transfers to date

[Frank Bulk]

Correct.  I'm guessing we'll see more aggressive filtering based on some
characteristic of the netblock before we see the IPv4 advertising threshold
change from /24 to /23.  If the IPv6 transition is very well along it's
possible that transit providers won't be as reluctant to filter more
aggressively.

...and that their upstream's peers will accept the /24 announcements. If 
that ever stops happening for newly-created /24s, then one /23 would be 
infinitely more valuable than 2 /24s.
