>Like David Conrad I believe a graduated approach to rationing would be a more appropriate response than maintaining current policies. A gradual(?) tightening of the allocation criteria over the next few years, as certain promulgated thresholds are passed, would have three principal effects:
A graduated approach means that some portions of addresses which
can be currently justified to allocate will not be justified in any new graduated policy.
In other words, it says the policy will have to be becoming tighter gradually.
My question is HOW. I personally can't imagine which kind of policy will achieve this goal.
Even if there are any, who in the world can agree with a new policy which
makes him/her giving up requesting addresses or just getting significatly fewer addresses?
I guess It would be more tough discussion than the proposed policy will cause.
This is why we have proposed a very simple policy.
Please indicate your idea about what a graduated approach is like
even a little bit concretely, if you prefer.
