I am in favor of this proposal.
4.10 will in effect become the new "waiting list", but with an additional
condition that I feel is important. That condition is a requirement for
the use of IPv6. The only other real change from the existing waiting is
the size of each "dip", and the total size that one can obtain. The
current waiting list is more generous versus this proposal. I consider
that "feature" to be a positive change.
I am ready for ARIN to start an IPv6 requirement whenever it allocates
IPv4 space. The current waiting list has NO IPv6 requirement. This
proposal is a good start to that goal.
I would consider it not responsible at this point for a new entrant to not
implement IPv6 at this point. Let those that want to continue or newly
establish new IPv4 infrastructure to go to the marketplace, and reserve
all IPv4 returns for those that have or will establish IPv6.

Really, it seems to me that this proposal is another attempt at eliminating the
waiting list for unmet requests.
The first attempt (ARIN auctions the space) met with resistance from ARIN’s
legal team (for good reason), so now this attempts to sequester the space where
it will be
hard to distribute rather than allowing the waiting list to have any potential
to compete with the transfer market.
The proposed targets (4.4 and 4.10 pools) are well stocked and unlikely to run
out in any useful IPv4 lifetime.
As such, restocking them from returned space strikes me as just a way to
sequester this space where it cannot be used.
IMHO, this is counter to ARIN’s mission and should not be allowed.
I oppose the policy as written and as proposed to be amended.

Thank you for the continued input on this draft policy proposal.
I will be updating the text of the draft policy to include both 4.4 and 4.10
pools. Point of information, the 4.4 pool currently has approximately 391 /24’s
and 4.10 has approximately 15,753 /24’s available and are not estimated to run
out in the next five years.
Please keep your feedback coming, it is very helpful for the council.

Subject: Re: [arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2019-17: Returned Addresses to the
4.10 Reserved Pool
The point is that you treating IP marketing as something 'natural' or a
'default route' which it is not and can never be. Natural is to receive some
addresses
from the RIR in first place so they are treated as anyone else was in the past
and have a chance to exist in the Internet with same conditions as all others.
From that if they need extra space then fine to seek for alternative ways.
I don't think a new entrants would automatically qualify for 4.10 in all cases
therefore any space left should be targeted also to them as well to IPv6
transition and critical infrastructure. Otherwise the community will be
creating an artificial barrier to them in order to favor the IP market while
the RIR
still has IPv4 space available for them.

I would think that the majority of new entrants would need at least some
allocation to help with IPv6 transition and would qualify for addresses
from the 4.10 pool. Depending on what they receive from that pool and
when, they may not qualify for additional waiting list addresses and would
have to go to the transfer market for additional IPv4 space anyway.
Those that don't qualify under 4.10 can still get smaller IPv4 blocks on the
transfer market readily, and the cost for blocks in the /24-/22 range is
not prohibitive. Certainly an organization seeking a small IPv4 block for
multi-homing or other purposes is better off spending a few thousand
dollars to purchase a range than waiting a year on the waiting list to put
their plans in motion.
Note that while RIPE does not have a reserve pool specifically for IPv6
transition, the expectation of their final /8 policy was to allow new entrants
access to IPv4 to assist in this transition. In reality, it didn't work out
that way and most of the /22 allocations to new LIRs from the final /8 were
to existing organizations who spun up new, related entities in order to
increase their IPv4 holdings:

I'm also sympathetic to new entrants, but don't see the current waiting list as
a great help to them vs. the 4.10 pool or the transfer market, both of
which allow you your allocation in a timely fashion.

I find it interesting the idea of privileging the pool dedicated to
facilitate IPv6 Deployment and I also agree with the comments below in
the sense that it's not very beneficial do most ARIN members due to max
size, /22, cannot be holding more than a /20.
However one point I couldn't identify is where the new entrants stand in
this new possible scenario ? Will they only be able to apply under the
4.10 reserved pool ? If so for a access/broadband ISPs may be easier to
fit, but not necessarily for other scenarios and types of ISPs.
Therefore if I didn't miss anything these returned addresses should also
be able to go to new entrants, not only to 4.10 reserved pool conditions.
