Was the applicatuon process supposed to be easy?. I dount but hey
hostmaster has to be careful and those with space weather a /24 or /12 have
them because they justified the need.

I hope by everyone you are also thinking like me about Somalia, South
Sudan, CAR, Eastern Congo, Lybia etc. Imagine they come and find nothing.
New folk with no space at all will need space.

Telecoms with legacy equipment are forever happy with NAT especially in the
AFRINIC region. I know this for a fact.
