Sprint is now announcing a change to its policy.
Sprint believes that it's policy at 206 and 207 has helped, but now it will be changed from /18 to /19. It should be implemented in June.
Since the NIC would prefer to issue smaller blocks, this will help them do that and still have those blocks "globally routable".
There is also alot of requests for peering with Sprintlink. Sprintlink expects that folks who want to peer will have DS3 backbone, three distinct NAP connections and a 24x7 NOC.
What about Grace periods on renumbering? There is no policy, but Sprint will evaluate things on a case-by-case basis. Sean argues that there is if there were tools that would make grace periods tractable.
APNIC reminds everyone that they should still seek to get address space from their provider first before going to a registry.
