Hello ppml community! I just wanted to recirculate Draft Policy ARIN 2020-10 for feedback. This draft policy would remove the requirement that ISPs that already hold reallocations or reassignments from upstream providers satisfy ARIN's efficient utilization requirements for those reallocations/reassignments before they are able to qualify for their initial allocation of space directly from ARIN, and get on the waitlist to receive that space.
Under current policy a new ISP that does not have any reallocations or reassignments qualifies for a /24 without having to establish efficient utilization of any previous space. This allows new ISPs to get on the waitlist sooner than ISPs holding reassignments/reallocations, despite the fact that neither type of organization holds space directly from ARIN yet. 1. Do you believe that NRPM's current distinction between ISPs holding reassignments/reallocations and new ISPs without any reallocations/reassignments still makes sense today? 2. Is leveling the playing field by allowing all ISPs that do not currently hold space directly from ARIN to qualify for a /24 without demonstrating prior use--regardless of whether or not they hold reallocations/reassignments--a fair solution that reflects the realities faced by these organizations today? Thanks!
