What a great thing to read about ARIN-2019-18 and a good message to
'lessors-to-be' or 'number resource landlords'. Well done AC.

Regarding Draft Policy ARIN-2019-18, the AC has released the
following statement:
"At its monthly meeting on December 19 2019, the ARIN AC voted
unanimously to abandon ARIN-2019-18: LIR/ISP Re-Assignment to
Non-Connected Networks.
At the public policy meeting at ARIN 44 and on PPML, there was near
universal opposition to expanding demonstrated need to encompass
acquiring more space for the purposes of leasing it decoupled from any
requirement for the lessor to be providing connectivity services.
Reasons for opposition included that this would facilitate creating a
class of "number resource landlords" as well as the observation that
this would essentially constitute an end run around any sort of
accountability for demonstrated need in the actual user of the number
resources. A distinction was drawn between leasing addresses that an
organization already has (which received somewhat more support on the
basis of whois accuracy and the observation that it is happening
anyway) and allowing leased-without-a-connectivity-contract space to
count as justification to acquire more space.
In the shepherds' opinion there is more work to be done in this space,
particularly surrounding accommodating financing for organizations
that are unable to afford cash on the barrelhead for number resources.
We enthusiastically solicit the community for new proposals that might
address these issues."
The petition deadline for this Draft Policy is 8 January 2020 (in five
calendar days).
