[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2014-7: Section 4.4 Micro Allocation Conservation Update - Revised

[David Huberman]

I support 2014-7's requirement to raise the number of participants required to obtain an IXP micro-allocation.  3 may be too low, but it's better than 2.

The ARIN AC would appreciate input from the community on this policy.

Specifically, do you support raising the number of participants required to obtain an IXP micro allocation from 2 to 3?

Thanks,
Andrew
