[arin-ppml] Automatic IPv6 Eligibility

[Paul]

Hello

We are getting ready to lose a /22 and /23 and 2 /24's when we switch 
from microwave data center providers
to fiber for our ISP that the data centers have been providing for us 
since the dial-up days .
/22 and /23 are no longer available. Will we have to pay the $100 annual 
fee on each /24 block allocated
even though nothing larger is available? Can we get an IPv6 allocation 
large enough when we file for AS number
for a several month cross over from microwave to fiber?

Thank you
