Re: Draft internic ip allocation doc

There is an easy solution -- do not allocate less than /16s. This would relieve InterNIC from caring about IN-ADDRs (and will do good things for routing, too).

--vadim

All ISPs receiving /16 prefix blocks from the InterNIC will be responsible for maintaining all IN-ADDR.ARPA domain records for their respective customers. The InterNIC Registry will only be responsible for the maintenance of IN-ADDR.ARPA domain records for those CIDR blocks with prefixes longer than /16 issued directly from the InterNIC.

Of course that violates the NIC charter as being the NIC of first and last resort. -- --bill
