Re: IPv4 smaller than /24 leasing?

[Mike Hammett <nanog () ics-il net>]

The topic of the Reddit thread won't really have any impact on anything. That 25 megabit definition wasn't used for 
anything other than reporting anyway. It had no impact on funding, deployment, etc. It wasn't necessary in the first 
place, but probably not smart to remove. 

Getting too far into politics now, me thinks.

$5k aint nothing. I started with less than that (but 
hung off the colo's in house bw through NAC.net til I 
could wean off it). I imagine tiny communities (and say on 
remote native reserves for eg) that $5k additional expense 
could be limiting. 

And soon to become even harder to setup an isp?
