...works reasonably well if you want to multihome w/ BGP, but cannot honestly justify a provider-independent IP allocation as per registry guidelines, assuming some level of common sense is exercised when planning things.
CIDR swamps are not cool.
Sorry I'm not an authority on what's cool in your book, but why not?
It must be portable and routable. See, I just created a market differentiator.
So, encourage the ARIN to offer micro-allocations today, and upstreams to listen to /24 (or whatever) and shorter out of this space, if and when it does become available. With the backing of MHSC, I'd imagine such a task should be effortless.
BTW, i've been getting comments that some folks are biasing evaluations of some clients, based on the ip addrs of the client's hosts.
Oh my. I thought all one needed to be stylin' was a low AS number. Do tell, which IP blocks are prestigious, and which are not? -adam
