Hi Denis, IPv4 address assignment is based on demonstrated technical need. Folks have quite reasonably questioned how, if you have an immediate need, you can afford to wait three years. Considering that the same IPv4 addresses for which you have demonstrated a need can be purchased on the market for a few thousand dollars. There are answers to that question, but they arguably boil down to this: the organization has presented ARIN with a paperwork tiger which meets the policy requirements but it can afford to wait because in reality it doesn't need the addresses all that badly. Traditionally, ARIN doesn't consider willingness to pay to be a part of demonstrated need. That tool has become available to us. Maybe we should be using it.
