Hi Denis,

Bear in mind that a startup or new business remains eligible to
acquire addresses on the market even after receiving an allocation
from the waiting list. I'm dubious of the proposition that an
adequately funded startup can afford to wait for addresses to become
available on the waiting list.

The waiting list, in its current incarnation, seems to me like more of
a tool for hobbyists and charities -- folks doing something on a
shoestring budget that doesn't have to be done on a timeline. And of
course folks gaming the system with manufactured justifications to get
something for free. The latter group can afford to wait as long as it
takes.

Regards,
Bill Herrin
