I suspect this is a troll. However, I'll take the bait... Why should this organization get any sort of special treatment? Because they have been too slack to properly SWIP their blocks? Because they don't feel like submitting the proper documentation? You posit that the customer genuinely needs the address space. How do we, as an Internet community discover that? The only way is documentation. I find it rather hard to believe that an organization without an AS, qualifies for a /18, based on the published criteria - they did take the time to read those, right? Andy, you request help to circumvent a process that is far from perfect, yet is our best hedge against the unscrupulous. I suppose the best advise for them is to hire a consultant who is fully conversant in the procedures for obtaining address spaces and an AS number. That's their best bet. - Daniel Golding

They submitted the form to request an AS and some address space. The response from ARIN wanted a ton of documentation. I understand why ARIN requires all of the documentation. Does ARIN require a ton of SWIPS be present for the customer before they will issue address space? This customer genuinely needs the address space but doesn't have the time to gather up all the information that is 'required'. Does anyone know of a person they can talk to at ARIN to help with this process? -Andy Ellifson __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
