[arin-ppml] ARIN-prop-177 Revising Section 4.4 C/I Reserved Pool Size

[Scott Leibrand]

ARIN,

How much of the "equivalent of a /16 of IPv4 address space" reserved under
4.4 has been used to date?  If the answer is zero (because you are still
allocating from smaller blocks), how much CI space has been allocated in
the last year?  If I'm reading
https://www.arin.net/knowledge/micro_allocations.html right, it looks
like you have issued a total of about 1.2 /16 equivalents for CI, plus
another 0.3 /16 equivalents for IXPs.

Thanks,
Scott
