Registration Services discussion

Axel,

Thank you for the response to the current discussion.

I do think several important issues have been raised in this discussion
that need further exploration. In particular, I think it would be very
productive if the NCC could prepare a report for the Budapest meeting
regarding the distribution of IP requests that must receive approval from
Registration Services. It would be extremely helpful in evaluating any
proposed changes to procedure to know what percentage of requests
requiring approval are in the /28 or longer assignment window. I believe
there is an impression that these requests for 8 or fewer IPs are taking
up a disproportionate amount of the limited resources available. Hard
statistics would go a long way towards affirming or disproving that
impression. 

Given how long the current request queue is, and how many of us rely on
this service until our assignment window increases, I think disclosure of
how the workload is distributed across cidr designations would be
appropriate.
