Most RIRs require you to announce some or all of your space in-region. They don’t have a policy which prohibits use in other regions. As a result, most organizations that would have the option of forum shopping under this proposal would be perfectly capable of doing so and would face little resistance from those policies. > Dis-allowing transfers for IPv6 and saying to people that they would have to > renumber and request new resources from other RIR’s, will not increase the > adoption of v6 usage. Anyone who cares about not renumbering their IPv6 has already deployed IPv6, so this is a specious argument at best. As has been pointed out by others, if you’re moving your infrastructure physically from one locale to another, you almost always end up renumbering in that process in order to support a phased move.
