[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2019-17: Returned Addresses to the 4.10 Reserved Pool

Having read the Problem Statement and understood what is being proposed, I'd kindly advise that this policy should also consider allocating the returned addresses not only to the ARIN 4.10 reserved pool - but also the ARIN 4.4 micro-allocation pool for critical infrastructure providers of the Internet , specifically public exchange points. Both would help on the improvement of the end-user experience given the actual depletion of IPv4

I find it interesting the idea of privileging the pool dedicated to
facilitate IPv6 Deployment and I also agree with the comments below in
the sense that it's not very beneficial do most ARIN members due to max
size, /22, cannot be holding more than a /20.

However one point I couldn't identify is where the new entrants stand in
this new possible scenario ? Will they only be able to apply under the
4.10 reserved pool ? If so for a access/broadband ISPs may be easier to
fit, but not necessarily for other scenarios and types of ISPs.
Therefore if I didn't miss anything these returned addresses should also
be able to go to new entrants, not only to 4.10 reserved pool conditions.

Best regards
Fernando Frediani
