[address-policy-wg] 2005-01 - Last Call for Comments (HD-ratio Proposal)

I should correct a typo in the note below.

Under the HD scheme /9 and /10 allocation will account for 0.11% of the 
actual allocations, not 1% as I said below. This correction probably 
amplifies the comment that its the small number of large allocations that 
are critical in assessing the total impact of the HD Ratio framework.

thanks,
