Hi Scott,

That defeats the anti-flipping provisions entirely. It costs all of a
couple hundred dollars ($2000 if you jump through -all- the hoops) to
create a subsidiary. It's trivial. You then sell the subsidiary
replete with addresses. The buyer doesn't even have to register
separately with the RIR. $10 domain name for the POC and google voice
account included.

Worse, as implemented in this proposal it creates an unfair bias
favoring out-migration of addresses since transfers to subsidiaries
within the region are covered by a different policy. This policy
proposal is biased against the domestic folks it is ARIN's core
mission to serve!

My view now is the same as it was in February:

"Loopholes = bad. Allow open transfers or don't, but please don't
create loopholes for folks to abuse."

Regards,
Bill Herrin
