I'm not sure if this is directed at me or David Huberman, but I'll
respond anyway.

The staff assessment for ARIN-2015-3 says;
   This policy would more closely align with the way staff applies the
existing policy
   in relation to 8.3 transfers. Because there is no longer an IPv4
free pool and many
   IPv4 requests are likely to be satisfied by 8.3 transfers, the
adoption of this policy
   should have no major impact on operations and could be implemented
as written.

I interpret this as saying the evaluation will be based on
more-or-less the same criteria it is today just with no requirement to
use 25% in 30 days, which you and everyone seems to support.

Thanks for clarifying.
