Now, however, that ARIN is discussing proposals such as 2002-5, 2002-6 and 
2002-7 (with 2002-5 & 2002-6 most likely being passed within few months)
ARIN maybe put in position of assigning smaller then /20 blocks and that 
is why I suggested on ARIN ppml mailing list that current micro-allocation 
wording about assiging small blocks from specifically designated larger 
blocks be made a separate policy that would apply to all small allocations &
asignments being made directly by ARIN. If you think its a good idea to 
make this a policy, please do send your feedback to ARIN or bring it up 
on ppml mailing list and then ARIN can work on this futher to make it a 
policy.


Proposal 2002-7 is exactly what is needed in my opinion.  I wish I'd seen 
it before I posted here earlier, since it basically identifies every 
problem I mentioned.
