   Hello All,   
      
   https://preview.tinyurl.com/y5ghv7eb   
      
   Today we allocated the last of our contiguous /22 IPv4 address blocks. We   
   still have approximately one million addresses available, in the form of /23s   
   and /24s, and we will continue making /22-equivalent allocations made up of   
   these smaller blocks. Once we can no longer allocate the equivalent of a /22,   
   we will announce that we have reached run-out. We expect this to occur in   
   November 2019.   
      
   Following our last update in August, we received a very high number of new LIR   
   applications. We have now reached a point where the number of LIRs waiting to   
   be activated is larger than the number of /22-equivalents remaining. This   
   means that some of these LIRs will only be eligible to request a /24 via the   
   waiting list by the time they are activated. We alerted these applicants to   
   this possibility during the application process.   
      
   Due to the number of new LIR applications still to be processed, we estimate   
   that it could be around eight weeks before we get to an application that is   
   submitted today. To ensure fairness, we are processing all LIR applications   
   (and IPv4 requests) in the order they were received.   
      
   It is important to note that the delay is only with LIR applications - not   
   IPv4 requests. Existing members can still request their final /22 allocations,   
   provided we still have addresses available.   
   More information:   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
