[address-policy-wg] RIPE Policy Proposal 2012-07 Accepted: Effect on ripe-604

Dear colleagues,

As announced on the RIPE NCC Services Working Group Mailing List, the 
policy proposal 2012-07, “RIPE NCC Services to Legacy Internet Resource 
Holders” has reached consensus. This proposal contained a small 
amendment to ripe-604, "IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment Policies 
for the RIPE NCC Service Region".

2012-07 replaces section 5.5 of ripe-604, currently:

"Any LIR is allowed to re-allocate complete or partial blocks of IPv4 
address space that were previously allocated to them by either the RIPE 
NCC or the IANA."

With

"Any LIR is allowed to re-allocate complete or partial blocks of IPv4 
address space that were previously allocated to them by the RIPE NCC or 
otherwise through the Regional Internet Registry System."

This change was proposed to ensure that 2012-07 was in alignment with 
the policies described in ripe-604, “IPv4 Address Allocation and 
Assignment Policies for the RIPE NCC Service Region”.

The new RIPE Document is ripe-606 and it is available at:
https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-606

As an existing RIPE Document was impacted by this policy proposal, we 
felt it was worth notifying the Address Policy Working Group.

Kind regards,

Marco Schmidt
Policy Development Officer
