I’m going to put myself out here a bit:</div>

I’m for 3. I think there should be a policy proposal put forward to eliminate the waitlist and reallocate the addresses going there to replenish other pools. </div>

<div dir="ltr" style="font-family: Aptos, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
Is there community support for that? Maybe, maybe not. I don’t know definitively how I feel about doing it as I want to hear other feedback from people who know a lot more than me, and I’m very open to that input. But I think committing it to the proposal process
and soliciting feedback via that path is the best course of action.</div>

Other than that, I’m for 2 as it at least gets closer to my understanding of what the waitlist was created for by cutting the wait time down dramatically.</div>

Howdy,<br>

I like option 1. The current state of the waitlist is unreasonable.<br>
It's obvious to me that we don't have consensus for option 2. If we<br>
get a bright idea in option 3's space, it can supplant anything we do<br>
now with option 1. If we do nothing then in three years the state of<br>
the waitlist will still be unreasonable. And will still be years away<br>
from being reasonable. So I support option 1.<br>
<br>
