Hi John,

I hope all is well with you!

So Alyssa’s answer are correct or rather were. ARIN, in fact, fulfilled all
requests that were on the waitlist during the 4th Qtr distribution
(completed first week of January). Currently there are 25 organizations
approved and added to the waitlist since that time. So basically, if the
policy being petitioned was successful and if the policy was then ratified
by the Board, and if all 24 of the organizations that could meet the terms
of the policy then they would receive their distribution prior to those 25
organizations currently on the waitlist. Based on projected inventory for
the 1st quarter distribution to be held in late March, all current
organizations on the waitlist today would be unaffected.

Ack, and thanks for the response. Per my most recent followup, how would the present matter effect the time until exhaustion, at present rate of allocation, if all removed from the waitlist got the requested blocks?

I realize there are a lot of “if’s” in there but at this time there is no
way know what exactly will be the outcome. In saying that it is clear that
no one on the waitlist today would be negatively affected.

 

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

 

Thanks,

John S.

Right - this is what I was trying to get at with my first response. 

 

The next disbursement would fulfill the requests of all of those 26
organizations who would be reinstated if this policy passed, plus everyone
else presently on the waiting list. This was the information provided to the
Advisory Council in the October and November meetings. John Curran or
Sweeting can confirm whether this remains true.

 

I believe a few of the other 26 affected orgs have chimed in during the
discussion of this proposal.

      Thank you. Have we heard from the other 25?  If all of these
      were
      fulfilled, what percentage of existing inventory would be
      consumed.  All
      of it?  It seems reasonable to me that the same kinds of
      considerations
      apply in this case as "2 packages of toilet paper per customer"
      when the
      pandemic hit.  This feeling becomes particularly acute when
      considering
      both that the waitlist address pool was only replenished after
      the
      recovery of addresses from those who acquired them fraudulently,
      and that
      precedent to that, the waitlist mechanism suffered from no
      available
      inventory.

      I will, however, reserve voicing an opinion until I fully
      understand the
      effects of the outcome on the available address pool, in both
      scenarios.

      Thanks,
      Scott
