If that?s the case, great, and I?ll withdraw my comment. I'll haven?t been on 
the receiving side of a reallocation in some time, so it?s entirely possible 
I?ve missed that development.

Subject: Re: [ARIN-consult] Consultation on Reallocation Control
        Features
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"

Thinking out loud on this some more:

If we want to avoid the complexity of having a reallocation being in some sort 
of provisional state waiting for an approval, and also want to avoid the 
complexity of asking users to maintain lists of allowed upstream org IDs... 
could we simply allow an org to prohibit incoming reallocations completely, 
similar to a consumer credit freeze? If the org needs to receive one, they can 
unset the checkbox, wait for the reallocation, then add it back afterwards. Is 
there a requirement for the feature that wouldn?t be covered by this approach?
