I could go either way. Certainly at the current time, the 3 month window is doing
more harm than good.

I'm OK with eliminating the 3-month and going back to 12 (or even 24 months)
and I'm OK with moving the 3-month trigger out to when ARIN holds ≤/8 in
inventory not counting reserved pools (2011-14 and reserved space for
IPv6 transition) which I believe totals a /16+/10 of reserved space.
