[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2019-1: Clarify Section 4 IPv4 Request Requirements

[Scott Leibrand]

Thanks for clarifying that, Chris. I support this draft policy proposal: forcing applicants to wait to get into line for free space will at least slow down any attempts to make money off the free pool via the waiting list.

This draft changes the hold-down timer so that it now applies to *applications* for new allocations under the waiting list policy, not the receipt of resources from it.

I assume ARIN staff is already interpreting it this way since that was the intent of the section.  So I wouldn't sever it unless the full policy doesn't gain support in which case we could revisit just inserting the clarification part.

If you transfer out space via 8.2/8.3/8.4, does this restriction mean you just can't receive space via the waiting list for 12 months, or via any mechanism (waiting list/transfer) for 12 months?  I think it means from the waiting list only, but want to be sure.
