I see nothing about temporary transfers in 5.5 of IPv5 policy. The leases would best fit under "sub-allocations", but that's just for downstream network operators (and I read that as BGP downstreams, not a random entity on the net). Also the transfers has to be approved by RIPE NCC, so you cannot ensure it's "temporary", because you can be denied the transfer-back. Correct me if I read the policy in a wrong way. >> And if I remember correctly you should return unused blocks and not >> lease them, don't you? > > You are certainly welcome to return unsed blocks to the RIPE NCC, but > you do not *have* to - the policies for allocations do not require that > (and there is no provision for the NCC to forcibly take them back either), > that's only for assignments. True, that was just my thinking about being a good "netizen", but it's not covered in the policy. Anyway I still think the leases are not in the line with the current policy.
