I don't think anyone is blaming the organizations that stood in the queue for doing anything wrong for "loosing" the resources that could have been assigned to them. They didn't loose because they never ended up having it. As most have been saying meeting all requirements at the time and standing in line was never a guarantee the resources would be allocated.

Fact is that things changed and they changed not to harm these organization but due to a natural thing, partially related to IPv4 exhaustion which has no solution inside the IPv4 world. Policy might change in the future again and may impact other organizations at that point in time.

I think there it no much point to find who to blame in this context, otherwise we could also ask if those that in end of 2020 keep refusing to deploy IPv6 are creating growing issues for those who have done it already or not.

This proposal seems to have been custom made for very specific case and not to answer the needs of majority of members, and as such I oppose it as well.

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.

      I find it hard to understand how you can believe that this is "special benefits".



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,
