Hi David,

Devil's advocate: 7 days means the IP address manager who isn't
updating ARIN records with automation can't take a normal vacation. 14
days is enough for someone to get their sunburn and then return and
process the backlog.

I have no dog in this fight, but as noted: staff reports some
organizations having trouble with the 7-day period who would be
satisfied with a 14-day period. While the information's anonymity
reduces its weight, does that mean we should disregard it entirely?

Regards,
Bill Herrin
