Re: [44net] Is AMPR still relatively active?

Hi Brian, Thank you. The original allocation addition was the 8th. There has been some back and forth with a fair amount of time in between. I was thinking what would be helpful is if there was specific information required, it would be good to prompt for it ahead of time. In reading through these threads, it appears there can be some variance in what may be required by each coordinator. Perhaps instead of free form text block there could be a means to prompt for some of the information that would be considered qualifying fields. In my case I got asked for protocols and number of hosts as an example. Prior to that I got the question. What are you doing with it? Some time was lost by not having enough information in the original request that would provide the coordinator the information they needed. So if you flagged some additional mandatory fields that might be helpful. In your form you provide a subnet choice. Perhaps you also prompt the user for number of hosts, number of subnets and protocols if that is something that coordinators will need. When the time between messages is measured in days, getting as close to a “complete" allocation request at the outset would be a real time saver. I had further confusion in that it appeared the coordinator I was working with and sent an email to as a welcome (as suggested) that initially got a response, it appeared the domain for his email was parked per it’s webpage so I was concerned that perhaps there was a delay due to this. I sent out a message as such to the contact us page for amprnet flagging this. Perhaps it’s a non-issue as I did later get a request from the site for further information which I responded.
