[arin-ppml] ARIN-2023-8 - Reduce 4.1.8 Maximum Allocation

[Gerry E.. George]

ARIN Community – 



As a co-shepherd on policy 2023-8 (Gerry George & Brian Jones), we are soliciting the community for feedback on this policy proposal following the discussions and opinions expressed at and since ARIN53. 



They have been distilled into a few main opinions (in no particular order): 

1. Policy not needed (no change). 

2. Do away with the Waitlist completely. 

3. Leave the /22 Maximum Allocation unchanged, but introduce a different method or formula of weighting the Waitlist requests to incorporate wait times and allocation size. 

4. Continue to work on it, and clarify wording. 

5. If to move forward, MUST address those currently on the Wait List and will they be Grandfathered in? (Fairness) 





Questions for the Community: 

a. Do we keep working on this policy? (Y/N - #1, #2) 

b. If yes, should consideration be given for some formula or weighted method towards allocations to queue occupants? (#3, #4) 

c. If yes, is there a need to add a clause for dealing with existing waitlist occupants? (#4, #5) 

And if so, how should they be handled? 




Note that if such a clause is determined for inclusion (#5), it will likely apply to ALL currently on the waitlist as at a specific point in time and they ALL would thus be subject to any such clause in the policy, once adopted. 



Thank you.
