<p class="MsoNormal">It's the time spent on the list. I waited 11 months on the list before getting my allocation. 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.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Organizations went through the approved process to get on the wait list to *possibly* be assigned an address block. 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.

<p class="MsoNormal">The question for me is what, clearly, is the inequity that grandfathering addresses? Going through the process? Waiting on the list and getting nothing? 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.<o:p></o:p></p>
