One of our customers was recently allocated a /20 netblock from ARIN. 
I had just been ass-u-ming it was a /19 until I cross-checked our
announcement update with the request from the customer.  Is this a
change in policy (I thought they only allocated /19 or bigger) or did
I miss something?  If the former, are NSPs like Sprint planning to
update filters to route these new smaller blocks?
