Hi Fernando and others,

Please use the thread for 2021-06 for discussing opinions on leasing as this 
proposal will not be accepted as valid and therefore we might lose any comments 
posted in this thread.

Thanks,

Subject: Re: [arin-ppml] Proposal to ban Leasing of IP Addresses in the ARIN 
region


Hi John

I don't think anyone discussing this thread is much concerned about pricing of 
services between ARIN participants and their customers really. I am personally 
not. The confusion may have come from the way Owen have put the text of this 
proposal.
What we are discussing so far is only about a proposal to have an appropriate 
language to ban Leasing of IP Addresses by LIRs.

Hope this helps to clarify

Regards
Fernando

Fernando -

Michael was 100% correct - do not engage in discussions of pricing or other 
terms of service between ARIN participants and their customers. Doing so is 
prohibited by US antitrust law and ARIN will not be a party to facilitating 
such discussions.

Participants who attempt to violate applicable law in this manner will be 
expressly removed from ARIN mailing lists in order to protect the remainder of 
the community that is able to participate properly.

Thanks,

I believe maybe Michael didn't understand well the matter fully or got only 
part of it.
Probably what caused more confusion was how Owen put the part "No signatory to 
any ARIN RSA is permitted by policy to engage in a recurring charge for 
addresses or a differentiated service charge based on the number if addresses 
issued to a customer.". That could be dubious in the sense that a LIR could not 
charge administrative fees when they assign addresses to their connectivity 
customers.

A simple: "No signatory to any ARIN RSA is permitted by policy to engage 
issuing addresses to non-conectivity customers. Addresses must be provided 
strictly as part of a contract for connectivity services."

I think Owen tried to put in a way to strengthen his point of view the LIR 
lease addresses and by that text they would not permitted to do even for 
connectivity customers.Simplifying it would achieve the objective in the 
subject without necessarily change the usual way LIRs allocate addresses to 
their *connectivity customers*.

Hi Michael,

I appreciate you clarifying this issue. If this policy proposal is considered 
out of scope, I would ask why Mike's policy proposal to explicitly allow 
leasing is considered in-scope for this PDP? If it is ARIN's position that it 
"does not impose any such restrictions on trade or pricing" with regards to 
pricing structure, why does ARIN differentiate justified need for transfers 
(trade) based on the absence or presence of connectivity services?

I am happy to dispatch with any discussions that are not relevant or allowed, 
but I think that your post requires additional clarification of what topics are 
not permissible since many of the issues you have raised as out of scope are 
germane to other policies under discussion.

Thanks,
Isaiah
