Hi Alison,
We have done 400+ transfers and have never heard of this problem from any buyer. Buyers are far more concerned with ensuring supply and what it will cost. I don't see the value in more Section 8 clutter. Anybody in the world with any sort of concern about demonstrating need by whatever arcane formula can avail themselves of the needs-free policy in RIPE. Open an account there, buy what you need, use them anywhere. Plus no transfer fees! That's the workaround. Even better would be to address this problem through excision of the needs test from ARIN transfer policy, rendering the NRPM simpler, easier to use, and less cluttered by pointless artifacts from the free-pool era. So I don't support the proposal in its revised form. Regards, Mike Burns From: ARIN-PPML [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of WOOD Alison * DAS Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2017 1:35 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [arin-ppml] ARIN Draft Policy 2017-1: Clarify Slow Start for Transfers proposed updates The ARIN Draft Policy 2017-1 shepherds working with the original author have updated the problem statement and added clarification to section 8.5.5. The AC would like feedback on the proposed updated problem statement and modification to 8.5.5. We encourage community members to comment on the proposed updates. Problem Statement (revised): Some number of organizations may be uncomfortable making speculative forward projections (that are now required under NRPM section 8 for purposes of transfer request approval) and prefer that there be available a more certain approach based solely on extrapolation of their existing IPv4 number usage trend. And adding the following text to the end of 8.5.5 Organizations may qualify for an additional block by using a projection of their address use from 6-24 months of allocations or assignments just prior to the transfer request. Thank you!
