Nobody was put to the back of the line. If you qualified under the new criteria, you were given the option of accepting the reduced size block (if applicable) and retaining your place in line.
If you were disqualified under the new criteria, then there was no back of the line for you to return to.

Most of the organizations affected are likely to have spent significant time on the list (unfortunately I do not have the exact data on time spent waiting for affected orgs). Spending time waiting, then get put to the back of the line so to speak and have to do it again, that's the issue. That was time wasted that could've been spent making other arrangements, hence they were penalized.

The policy on allocations was changed, however the organizations did everything by the book per previous policy. The organization is now told that they have to go through the process again and wait longer. This has nothing to do with potential space allocation. I am all for limiting the allocation amount in the future. However, to penalize an organization that has followed the process to this point is unfair. This also is no guarantee that these organizations will receive an allocation. More likely, they'll continue to wait.

There were no guarantees made when a company got on the list as far as I can tell. The process was minimal and I don't think it in itself requires any special compensation. This policy, if I read the meeting minutes correctly and Owen's comments in them, doesn't really help with much at all.
