[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2019-20: Harmonization of Maximum Allocation Requirements under Sections 4.1.8 (ARIN Waitlist) and 4.2.2 (Initial Allocation to ISPs)

[Fernando Frediani]

Support this proposal.
Make sense to harmonize given the current scenario. In other RIRs it 
works or is planned to work in the same way.
