<div>Given the clear problem statement, it shouldn't be hard to make a policy proposal that</div>
<div>very quickly results in clear policy text for the change. Combine that with evidence of</div>
<div>solid community support and dwindling IPv4 free pool, and it would be feasible to ask </div>
<div>for Board intervention, if needed. Note that even under our standard timelines, this </div>
<div>could be adopted immediately after the ARIN Public Policy Consultation at NANOG 61</div>
<div>if recommended beforehand and well supported at that meeting.</div>
