[arin-ppml] ARIN-PPML Digest, Vol 167, Issue 80

I have seen proposals in different RIRs from /23 to /20 and to be honest 
I believe that /22 is fine for newcomers or to a maximum or as a maximum 
an existing one. /23 is way too small and almost useless to most cases. 
Even /22 are not much addresses but enough for someone to exist in the 
Internet and do a proper CGNAT or similar techniques in order to have a 
proper Dual-Stack.

Anything that comes back into the pool should always favor newcomers or 
those who haven't reached a /22 yet. To be honest I don't see much sense 
for a newcomer ISP not to receive a /22 straight upon first request. 
Being an ISP is already justification to receive a /22.

Anything beyond that should happen via transfers for existing members.
