I think the point is if you have to ask how to connect (announce) your /24 to the internet you probably shouldn't be doing it on your own, your ISP needs to do it for you. Perhaps a overview of internet routing process is needed, as I want the 44/net to be a place to learn, but we need to ensure people understand what they are doing before messing with the global table.
This is quite simple, but the LoA (letter of authority) and required information can be daunting to those who've never done it before.
Also, if you're on the digest version, can you change the subject of your reply? I've been ignoring this thread since I didn't feel like reading it all at once.

So I don't flood Brian with direct allocation requests and do my part for keeping the global BGP routing table from expanding faster, I just added this caveat to the wiki documentation..
NOTE: Direct announcements of AMPRNet address allocations are usually reserved for larger regional or country wide networks. Please consult with your regional allocation coordinator and the AMPRNet network administrator to determine whether directly announcing your AMPRNet allocation is appropriate.

It never struck me that Brian Kantor needed to directly allocate space that is to be announced as technically it shouldn't matter where or how you received the allocation (local coordinator or otherwise) only that The powers that be within AMPRnet issue the proper LOA to allow it's announcement.

My guess is that only Brian (or another officer of the ARDC) can legally issue an LOA to an ISP.
Allowing local coordinators to issue LOAs could be problematic.
