This is sensible and realistic.  In agreement.

Thanks Dave,

Subject: Re: [arin-ppml] Policy Experience Report Working Group Leasing Question

In my opinion, the 60-month probation on transfers in section 4.1.8 is intended 
to prevent immediate monetization through the transfer market of IPv4 resources 
obtained from the waiting list. Allowing the lease of IPv4 resources obtained 
from the waiting list prior to the end of the 60-month probation would seem to 
flaunt the intent of the probation. However, once past the 60-month probation, 
allowing the transfer or lease of IPv4 resources seems consistent with the 
policies intent.

I would like to point out that the transfer market has been remarkably 
successful in making IPv4 resources voluntarily available that otherwise would 
not have been available or would have required a highly litigious reclamation 
process to be made available. In addition, leasing seems to be a natural 
evolution of the transfer market for those that do not have the capital funding 
to obtain IPv4 resources on the transfer market. Finally, despite a few issues, 
the waiting list has also been remarkably successful at ensuring any IPv4 
resources returned to ARIN, for whatever reason, are redistributed to the ARIN 
community.

Suggestions that ARIN should instead auction the waiting list resources, while 
seemingly logical, given the success of the transfer market, nevertheless seem 
incompatible with ARIN's not-for-profit status.

In summary, leasing IPv4 resources obtained from the waiting list after the 
60-month probation should be allowed. Prior to that, leasing should not be 
allowed. How we effectively enforce that is another question entirely, and I 
personally don't have any good answers to that question.

Thanks

Good morning PPML!



I would like community feedback on the leasing of ip space that is obtained 
from the waitlist.  Please let me know what you think and if a policy proposal 
would be warranted.



Thank you!
