[arin-ppml] Looking for final show of support on revised Advisory Council Recommendation Regarding NRPM 4.1.8. Unmet Requests

I support the AC's recommendation as written.

While this policy will limit the organizations that are eligible to 
receive a block, I believe it strikes the right balance.  The smaller 
block size (/22) is generally in line with the final block size 
allocations of the other RIRs.

Furthermore, I would ask the the board consider adopting a fee to 
receive any block from the wait-list.  I believe this fee would be 
beneficial for two purposes.  One, it would help ARIN recover the costs 
associated with managing the wait-list and two, the fee would slightly 
close the gap between the the windfall from receiving a wait-list block 
and the market price of receiving a block via transfer.
