[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2014-18: Simplifying MinimumAllocations and Assignments

[Steven Ryerse]

I agree of course we should allocate small blocks as well.  It seems like a no brainer that we wouldn't want to also allocate all those small /24 block instead of letting ipv4 run out and nobody gets to use them.

I support the proposal. How else are we going to get rid of the more than
1,000 /24s left as the dregs of decades of allocations?
It will take a long time to dole out one /24 every three months to each needy applicant, do we want to extend this near-exhaust environment?

Opposed, as I do not see the need to justify 200 addresses as enough of a burden to outweigh the benefits of not giving out /24s like candy to those who cannot when coupled with the likely to be implemented minimum /24 size allocation to an ORG.

The laws of physics cause this to be needed, due to current technology used to preform the basic functions of the internet. This would not be good stewardship of the resource as this is a remarkably low barrier to entry considering the ramifications.
