While I support the goals of 2013-03 in a post-IPv4-depletion world, we are currently in an uncomfortable intermediate state where IPv4 depletion has occurred in some regions (RIPE and APNIC) but not in others (ARIN, LACNIC, and AfriNIC). I think it will be wise to wait until IPv4 depletion to remove of (at least some) needs requirements in those regions that still have an IPv4 free pool. As a result of the fact of remaining RIR free pools, and the current policy and sentiment in the ARIN region that inter-RIR IPv4 transfers should occur only to organizations/regions that justify need for the addresses (to avoid a run on said free pool), I think it would be wise to do something like this: - First, pass an inter-RIR transfer policy in the RIPE region that is compatible with both the APNIC and ARIN inter-RIR transfer policies (i.e. has some form of needs justification). - Second, make sure that RIPE's transfer policy serves all organizations in the RIPE region, including those who in the past got PI space from RIPE. - Third, relax the ARIN region's inter-RIR transfer policy such that after IPv4 depletion in the ARIN region, transfers are allowed to regions with policies like 2013-03. - Fourth, pass something along the lines of 2013-03 in the RIPE region (to take effect) after IPv4 depletion has occurred in the ARIN region. - Fifth, update policy in other regions as well to align policy with the needs of a post-IPv4-depletion world. I'm more than happy to help drive #3 and eventually #5 in the ARIN region. -Scott On Thu, Mar 21, 2013 at 10:33 AM, <sandrabrown at ipv4marketgroup.com> wrote: > > You can find the full proposal at: > > > > https://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2013-03 > > > > We encourage you to review this proposal and send your comments to > > <address-policy-wg at ripe.net> before 16 April 2013. > > Support. > > This goal of 2012-03 was to align the justification period with the > other RIR's who allow inter-RIR transfers.
