Bill - Could you elaborate? A party X in ARIN region wishes to transfer to party Y in region “R”. You wish to predicate ARIN’s ability to process such a transfer on whether or not other parties in region “R” are allowed to transfer to folks in the ARIN region? How is this fair to “X” or “Y”, who simply are trying to get resources to where they are needed? >> Is /25 "unusually small”? > > The nice thing about my way is that ARIN need never make that call.

Registrants will make that call, but ISP’s have often looked to the RIRs to take the lead in determining what block size makes sense, and then made their routing decisions accordingly. In allowing smaller block sizes, isn’t that an implicit endorsement that ISPs should consider routing such? /John John Curran President and CEO ARIN _______________________________________________ PPML You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List ([email protected]).
