Maybe from your prospective, when you have the policy book in your hand or memorized. But, things are way different from ours (and I am sure others).
Uh, they had better have changed or the AC work which was previously done was ignored (if THAT is the case, the web site is wrong and ARIN is not following the recommendations that they claim were approved and are currently out there as existing practice)
There were very specific reasons why we asked you the questions we did, however, I think it's best if we discuss this one on one. Feel free to call me or email me and I will be happy to discuss your particular request.
If those very specific reasons go beyond the requirements specified on the ARIN web page for ISP initial assignments, then I would expect NAC.NET (or anyone else) to refuse to comply, as those demands exceed ARIN's announced policies. If they do NOT go beyond those requirements, then there is nothing privileged about discussing the issue out in the open, assuming NAC.NET wishes to do so (and I encourage them to do so). This is the beauty of published, objective criteria - either you meet it or you do not. -- -- Karl Denninger (karl@MCS.Net)| MCSNet - Serving Chicagoland and Wisconsin http://www.mcs.net/ | T1's from $600 monthly / All Lines K56Flex/DOV | NEW!
