Yes I agree it should have happened years ago and I agree that an outside 
marketplace already exists, but it isn't too late for ARIN to engage and 
embrace the new marketplace.  I certainly do understand why those large Legacy 
holders would just watch and wait to see what happened in the marketplace once 
all of the RIRs run out of resources. It is in their interest to do so.

this discussion should have happened 10 years ago. Now, it's too late.

Everyone knows that IP addresses are worth a buck or two.. The marketplace 
exists and at least 3 RIRs acknowledge it and their communities have built 
policies for it. Would you give them up if you would be having a (large) number 
of unused IPs; IPs that may bring your organization the money needed to invest 
in new equipment and skills and migrate to IPv6 :)
