To those who oppose because they find the mechanism in the proposal is not effective do you have an alternative and more effective text to propose so the author may consider a change. I guess if you the current is ineffective the alternative would have to be more complex but still objective.

The point I believe is not about creating hurdles for IPv4 but a natural and quiet obvious move to what IS the current Internet protocol and what must work in order for Internet to survive. Otherwise why would ARIN's Board issue such resolution in that sense ? And there are plenty of other Internet related organizations in the same direction.

There will be conflicts in either cases, if things a left loose are they are at the people's pleasure there will be as mentioned, growing conflicts regarding IPv4 exhaustion and they tend to grow quiet fastly. If things push for transition to IPv6 (in this case much more softly) there will be conflicts with those who believe they have the right to hold themselves and all others to the past.

Even more important is that due to these ones willing to wash their hands and deny evolution making *all others will be paying the price* due not only the problems caused by the lack of IPv4 but also to the price increasing they will have to pay should they to need to purchase any extra chunk of addresses to be able to exist in the internet while there is a feasible solution available. That's why it is very reasonable and fair that this same impacted community desire to have more mechanisms to that direction and is completely legit they come out from a change in the policy

Between both types of conflicts my bet is that the second which means evolution will prevail.

I oppose this policy.

I'm not convinced of the efficacy of this policy, the policy's ability to produce its intended or desired result. I presume the intended result is to increase the deployment of IPv6. I'm not convinced that creating artificial hurdles for IPv4 will increase the deployment of IPv6 in any way. If the natural hurdle of having to go to the market to get IPv4 isn't enough to convince people to deploy IPv6, why would this artificial hurdle convince them? Given human nature, if this policy goes forward, I expect many people will turn on IPv6 to complete their IPv4 transfer and then simply turn IPv6 off again, the end result does nothing for IPv6 deployment. Further, I suspect this policy is more likely to antagonize people against deploying IPv6 more than it is will incentivize them toward deploying IPv6.

Please let's not go in this direction.

Thanks.

    policy with ARIN's Principles of Internet number resource policy as
    stated in the Policy Development Process (PDP). Specifically, these
    principles are:

    * Enabling Fair and Impartial Number Resource Administration
    * Technically Sound

    Draft Policy ARIN-2019-19: Require IPv6 Before Receiving Section 8
    IPv4
    Transfers

    Problem Statement:

    On 7 May 2007 the ARIN Board unanimously passed an IPv6
    resolution. In
    2011, the last /8 blocks were assigned to the RIR’s and has now been
    over 4 years since the IPv4 free pool was exhausted at ARIN.

    Now is the time for ARIN to require those who receive transferred
    IPv4
    space to have in place an operational IPv6 network.

    Policy statement:

    In section 8.5.2, add the following language to the end of the
    paragraph
    entitled “Operational Use”:

    Such operational network must at minimum include an allocation or
    assignment by ARIN of IPv6 address space under the same Org ID
    receiving
    the transferred IPv4 space. Such Org must be able to prove this IPv6
    space is being routed by using it to communicate with ARIN.

    In the event the receiver provides a written statement from its
    upstream
    that IPv6 connectivity is unavailable, the IPv6 requirement may be
    waived.

    Timetable for Implementation: Upon Passage

    Anything Else:

    The following was included in the IPv6 resolution:

    BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby requests the ARIN
    Advisory Council to consider Internet Numbering Resource Policy
    changes
    advisable to encourage migration to IPv6 numbering resources where
    possible.

    This proposal is part of an effort to encourage migration to IPv6.
