No way. I just wanted to know if the workload to be expected is the same
as with ARIN and RIPE because i am doing this on a freelancer basis
for ISP companies.
Judging from the replies ive got so far now APNIC is as picky as RIPE
and ARIN.
It can be tough to get an routable assignment alltough the company
really needs it, you know. And at least the RIPE became more and
more picky within the last years. Like they allways want an deployment
plan now which was only asked for on special occasion like 2-3 years
ago.
thanx for all that answered so far.
regards,
Arnd
