Exchange point requests for IPv6 address space

Yes. It should expand the current micro-allocation policy to include IPv6
registrations. Organizations requiring IPv6 address space under the
micro-allocation policy should be able to petition ARIN directly. There
should be no specification of block size in the policy, as it is both
ARIN's and the requesting organization's responsibility to determine an
appropriately-sized block, just like in v4 today.
