Please keep in mind this policy is a result of discussions
held at the ARIN public policy meeting in Calgary earlier
this year.
The policy does state ARIN will accept IP-based hosting
as justification for an allocation if an exception is
warranted. ARIN is looking to the community to define
these exceptions and finds the discussions being held
here to be very helpful. This information will be included
in the policy discussion at the upcoming ARIN public
policy meeting.
These discussions may create changes to the current
policy, perhaps by clearly defining a list of exceptions,
or may even eliminate the new policy altogether. Your
feedback on this mailing list and at the upcoming public
policy meeting is important.
Information about the upcoming public policy meeting can
be found at:

American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)
How about voting on the Internet ISOC style?
