Owen, you act like 2014-18 is a big deal. Stand back a moment and look at the
forest instead of the trees. Nobody can corner the market on the new Minimum
of a /24 once every year. It would take me 4 years just to get 1024 addresses
and I'd have to pay for them so they are not free and of course they are
covered by the RSA so I can't really sell them without ARIN being involved.
There would probably be a short rush of Orgs getting a /24 that they think they
need and then it would be over. The total number of addresses combined would
not be that big and some Orgs that are shut out now - who really do need them -
will be able to get them and put them to good use which is what ARIN is
supposed to foster.
This is a little deal in terms of total addresses - why would this be so
irresponsible or such bad stewardship. It seems to me like this would be the
opposite and would be good positive stewardship - since it would help ARIN find
productive use of the many /24 sized blocks ARIN has that are currently idle.
I think folks in the community are so caught up in protecting the remaining
ipv4 resources from running out and from being acquired by bad actors, that
small orgs who just need some small resources are being locked out
unnecessarily.
I would respectfully ask when considering 2014-18, everyone look at the actual
total effect of this proposed policy change. It is small and I get the sense
from some of the comments that folks don't realize that it would be small.

I believe his point and mine is that from our perspective, ARIN _DOES_ serve
small organizations.
I know that ARIN has certainly well served my small organization and many small
organizations for which I have managed, requested, and received resources.
So, the foundation to the discussion appears to be what others regard as a
flawed premise that ARIN does not currently serve small organizations.
