Haven't read anything on changes in the announcements, except the "we're 
sending this to PPML (think that's right?)", but no announcement on a 
change of opinion/policy. I have enough mailing lists.

We'll see. I've asked for a do-over, or whatever they called it. /24 
seemed a bit much, so I slimmed down to /27, thinking it more 
appropriate for a 5 year plan (which is what they asked).

Sure they'll love the latency. I know I currently do with the mess that 
is core routing. Anyone who would actually care, probably would request 
a static, which we are much more lenient with IPv6 than IPv4. However, I 
can't issue /48 to everyone as things stand. We'll see how it goes with 
ARIN, now that I know I can ask again and not go through the hassle for 
nothing.
