Now for my editorial. I know there's people that want to see needs-based keep getting harder and more nitpicky tedious, and I used to be one of them. But I'm at the point where all these policies are becoming tedious. Policy is what got us here. ARIN's free pool is practically done. Are we going to keep making policies to make it harder and harder to get space so it requires a bonafide miracle to actually get it? Vast amounts of space are already tied up through private agreements whether ARIN allows its whois to be updated or not. IPv4 space that's already been doled out is out, time let it go instead of trying to get a dying grasp on our precious as it falls into the fires of Mount Doom.
Before someone says "oh but you opposed other policy that removed needs based requests": I still oppose removing needs-based requirements on requests to ARIN from ARIN's free pool. I do support allowing a one time or once every 2 years needs-free *transfer* up to /16-18 for reasons already stated.
