But is not the real unfairness issue being able to receive more space from the list than those that apply now?

That is the issue I have a problem with. Along with the fact that without free pools, there is little to give out in the first place.

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.

Grandfathering is a common technique that addresses inequities changes create. 
Governments do it and business does it. To some extent, the could be called
"special benefits". However, the context of that is different, some feel the 
benefits create an inequity rather than resolve one. 

 

      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.

      This draft policy is simply to not penalize organizations that went 
through the proper process of what was approved policy at the time. A
      similar scenario would be arresting someone who has broken a law, prior 
to the offense becoming law.

 

 

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.

 

 


      I continue to support this policy, not because I agree that larger 
requests should be granted, but because the organizations had followed the
      approved process and policies.

 

I'm not entirely certain where I sit on this. So far I haven't seen strong 
arguments one way or the other.

 

Fair enough. Thank you.

 

Warm regards,
