Since AFRINIC still has a general free pool, why is not getting addresses
directly from that RIR for use in that region not an option? With no
current resources in that area, it should be easy to get an initial
allocation, just like the old days....
Also, why cannot we consider a policy that allows the same operator to
transfer between regions, without opening up the policy to the general
transfer market?
I see fewer problems with a transfer to another RIR, as long as the entity
at each end of the transfer is the same. It is when we open up one way
transfers between non related entities is where I see the issue for abuse.

ARIN-based network operators who are responsible for multi-continent IP
networks need to be able to move ARIN-registered numbers from ARIN to LACNIC
and AFRINIC for our datacenters in those regions. This need is to allow us
to achieve legal compliance and network engineering goals.
This draft policy meets that need, has safeguards against imbalance, and is
respectful of the wishes of two RIR communities. Quoting David Farmer:
"In the long-run I totally believe LACNIC and AFRINIC should approve
reciprocal transfer policies. However, we need to give them room to decide
this for themselves, it is arrogant and inconsiderate of the facts for us to
dictate a reciprocal transfer policy to them. If they feel they need to
start with a one-way transfer policy, there is logic to such a strategy, and
the current facts seem to justify at least some caution on their part."
