This will hopefully stop some of the short term golddigging in the the dying

I support this proposal. I do not think that this will have a big impact, but 
it certainly brings the policy in alignment with the original intent.

While I do consider this only partially relevant to the policy proposal

 RIPE *policy*, on the other hand, is explicitely not made by the RIPE
 NCC or the RIPE NCC members, but by the RIPE community - which is
 individual having an interest not corporations being part of a
 commercial structure.

the reason for this is because the internet serves the entire community,
whether LIR, enterprise, or 15 year old with a modem (he has probably
upgraded since i last used him as an example).  the internet is for
everyone, and policy decisions should be open to input from everyone.

of course, this does not include sock puppets.

Please let me try to clarify this. This is the process that was followed
in the period between October 2007 and September 2012:

Requests for PA allocations equal to or larger than a /15 would go
through an escalation process. In this case, the documentation would be
reviewed and evaluated by a second IP Resource Analyst (IPRA). Once both
IPRAs were satisfied with the documentation provided, their findings
were reviewed by the Registration Services (RS) Manager (to confirm that
the evaluation was carried out according to Registration Services
procedures) and the Policy Development Officer (to confirm that the
request was in compliance with RIPE policies). Once the RS Manager and
the Policy Development Officer were satisfied with the documentation
provided, the request would be escalated to two Senior Managers, who
would check that all processes were followed correctly.

I hope this clarifies.

 later there were no more IPs left.


OutsideHeaven is the company name, how it legally structured should not be
relevant anyway.



  It is very interesting to find out that the IPs were allocated to you by
  the same person that has initiated this proposal.
 
 
  Elvis made the proposal, yes, and Elvis was one of the hostmaster
 processed
  our application, yes.

 He approved your request for hudreds of thousands of IPs, even approved
 this last-second allocation. I honestly didn't know that but it can only
 support my opposition to this proposal.


Please provide evidence for following claim, otherwise you are just making
accusation without any support evidence.

He approved your request for hudreds of thousands of IPs, even approved
this last-second allocation. 

And the reality is, Elvis has never on the position to make final decision
about our allocation.


  However,  Elvis was NOT the only person process our application, large
  request are processed by hostmaster team rather than single hostmaster,
 and
  I can add this(Elvis might as well agree)to my personal opinion, he was
 the
  most unfriendly hostmaster we happen to come across at that time, So do
 not
  make it personal.

 I'm not making it personal. For example David Hilario was very friendly
 but he only approved half of what I requested for the company that had
 the largest IPv6 deployment at that time.


Large IPv6 deployment does not justify IPv4 need, I think this is common
knowledge.



  And as far as I concern, Elvis are making this proposal at good of whole
  community, there is no his personal interest involved, as he is an IP
  broker now, passing this proposal only means less business for him but
 not
  more business.



 Yes, a few years ago he approved your allocations and now he is helping
 you sell the IPs. Obviously he only dreams about world peace and there
 is no conflict of interests here.


Again, you are making false statement without any evidence, in reality, I
have never done any business with Elvis now and past.



  You are accusing me abuse, please provide evident since you are doing
  it
  in a public space.
 
  That is my opinion based on the facts that I already mentioned.
 
 
  Again, Abuse is an strong statement and it is not an simple opinion. in
  which fact you have mentioned that leads to this conclusion?

 Abuse, abuse abuse. This same word was used when refering to the sale of
 /22s from the last /8. Why is it such a strong statement now ? Everybody
 was using it on this list.

 Well, people can kill people does not justify you can do the same, as it
is about me this time and I personally really not happy about this, so I
will do possible things to stop such unlawful activity about us.


  And to best of my knowledge,  RIPE NCC board has never been involved in

Thing is, anyone can send a mail to this list, and generally speaking,
everyone's opinion is listened to.

Now, if on the last day, a number of people nobody has ever heard of show
up, from freemail accounts, and send -1s without any arguments, I think
you can understand that it's a bit hard to see whether these are people
legitimately concerned with specific reasons why they do not like the
proposal, or just straw men.  I can't tell, so I won't dismiss the mails
summarily - but when judging the overall result, this certainly will
influence the way we look at them.

 I agree that any -1s especially (preferably also +1s) should be argumented, 
 but those arguments should not be thrown out simply because it's the last 
 day or because you never spoke here before, which is was has been done 
 here by some people.

I'm not some people :-)

 Also, to deal with the concerns is pretty vague, especially in establishing 
 when the concern has been dealt with. A reply from someone expressing 
 disagreement with a concern does not mean the concern was dealt with.

This is the way rough consensus works - we will hardly ever reach unanimous
agreement to a proposal, and quite often, we will not be able to convince
everyone that we should do or not do something.  But what we can do is to
ensure that reasonable concerns (read: those that are clearly spelled out
and are not totally made up) are at least answered.

What is reasonable is sometimes very hard to judge when it comes to
expectations, assumptions and predictions about things that might or might
not happen in 5 years.  This is not a very exact science.

 My concern regarding the RIPE NCC impact analysis were (from my 
 understanding) it is said that this policy will not address the actual 
 hoarding problem was not even slightly dealt with, just an example.

I have to admit that I lost a bit track in the current hubbub about who
said what, and who answered what, and who went off into non-relevant side-track
discussions.  Sander will look at it with a more detached eye and present
his findings.

[..]
 I strongly feel that any kind of policy change (resource related
 or not) that would impact members directly should be voted upon -
 electronically, without the need of a RIPE meeting. Of course prior
 to voting all discussions should take place on mailing lists. The
 infrastructure is already setup. We are all ISPs and/or internet
 related businesses, I think we can all find 5 mins online in a 24h
 period to vote...

No.  Voting can be even more easily rigged than consensus building on
a public mailing list.

(For a start, it's totally impossible to define who is entitled to vote,
and how you get a represenative part of the community to actually vote)

 worked for was just a simple corporation with over 5000 employees, over
 2 million subscribers and yes, I was denied a /13, only received about
 half and that was after the thorough analysis. Below is the mail I
 received confirming this:

 Because of the size, the request will go now through an approval
 process that involves the RIPE NCC management. This may take up
 to 3 working days.
 This means that the size of the request is not approved yet and
 might change depending on the outcome of the approval process.

 If there are any questions do please let me know.

 Ripe NCC management does not equal to RIPE board, making accusation on
 board involved in the registration service is totally false.

I appologize, I don't have such a deep knowledge of RIPE's
infrastructure. I confused RIPE management with RIPE board. Probably I
should have said the guys from the top floor.



 
 

 More over, receiving large IP space does not equal to large ISP, I think
 this is just common knowledge. There are tons of IP intensive service out
 there in which has nothing to do with individual customers(CDN for
 example).

 Hope this clarify things and the subject should not be bought up at
 personal level again.

Hi,

For a start, it's totally impossible to define who is entitled to vote, and
how you get a represenative part of the community to actually vote -
really? RIPE members should vote, since they are the ones affected, they are
the ones telling the RIPE NCC how to act (at least that's my understanding -
RIPE NCC works FOR RIPE, RIPE which is made of members of EQUAL rights and
obligations). Of course, on the mailing lists ANYONE can intervene, and
point out concerns, modifications, etc, and based on what is discussed
there, the RIPE members vote. How to get them to vote - that is a totally
different question - in Holland as far as I know, voting is COMPULSORY, and
you face a penalty if you don't vote - I'm not saying to do something like
this, but methods can be found. Also, I can agree there should be a minimum
quorum, so that it doesn't happen that only 10 members vote and decide for
hundreds of others. A 30% minimum votes I think is feasible. Vote rigging?
Really? How do you come to that conclusion? It's not like we are in the US
congress and have lobbists who push/bribe/bring illegal voters to get their
way ... come on...

 What is reasonable is sometimes very hard to judge when it comes to
expectations, assumptions and predictions about things that might or might
not happen in 5 years.  This is not a very exact science. 
I totally agree it's not an exact science, but the (two) deciders who
basically have the final word, should be 100% neutral. As somebody else
mentioned, you leave the impression of beeing biased to this exact policy.

 I'm not some people :-) - you were not the only one implying that
people who never spoke up before don't have the same weight in this
decision. I don't want to point fingers, it is nothing personal.

Again, please understand that I agree with most of your affirmations. I also
fully agree that a policy should be put in place to avoid abuse of the last
/8 (the RIPE NCC does not see it as an abuse, I reiterate this, and also
does not see this policy as having a real impact), but this policy does not
do that. In my opinion, other mechanisms should be enforced - for example,
what procentage of the /22s allocated are beeing announced? Just that the
LIR was not closed, it does not mean the /22 was not hoarded.

or the RIPE NCC members, but by the RIPE community - which is individual
having an interest not corporations being part of a commercial structure.

The RIPE NCC acts as a secretariat, implementing the policy made by the

It is very interesting to find out that the IPs were allocated to you by
the same person that has initiated this proposal.

 You are accusing me abuse, please provide evident since you are doing it
 in a public space.

That is my opinion based on the facts that I already mentioned.

 And to best of my knowledge,  RIPE NCC board has never been involved in any
 of the registration process, will never do so as well, i am very much
 double that you have been told you need to have board approval for your
 allocation request(if one of current board member are reading this, please
 help to clarify).

Well, maybe it was not your case since you were showing a very
convincing growth exactly in the last year. Unlike you the company I
worked for was just a simple corporation with over 5000 employees, over
2 million subscribers and yes, I was denied a /13, only received about
half and that was after the thorough analysis. Below is the mail I
received confirming this:

 Because of the size, the request will go now through an approval
 process that involves the RIPE NCC management. This may take up
 to 3 working days.
 This means that the size of the request is not approved yet and
 might change depending on the outcome of the approval process.

 If there are any questions do please let me know.

 More over, receiving large IP space does not equal to large ISP, I think
 this is just common knowledge. There are tons of IP intensive service out
 there in which has nothing to do with individual customers(CDN for example).
 
 Hope this clarify things and the subject should not be bought up at

Yes, right, I'm sure you make a good point and everything is reasonable.
Sorry for being unable to understand your arguments.

Abuse is not an opinion,  it is an statement and accusation,  and you are
making an statement in a public space about me and my company, unless you
have solicit evidence, such statement is unlawful across each continent.


 Here is your example and my company happened to be the receivee to all of

 Not your company, I've checked the original inetnums and at that time
 the allocations were made to you as a natural person.


The allocation was issued to my company at time of registration.

But it does not matter, as it is my personally and my company business
structure and affair, has nothing to do with the list.


  My company as far as I can see, has growth substantially in past 3 years,

Elvis made the proposal, yes, and Elvis was one of the hostmaster processed
our application, yes.

However,  Elvis was NOT the only person process our application, large
request are processed by hostmaster team rather than single hostmaster, and
I can add this(Elvis might as well agree)to my personal opinion, he was the
most unfriendly hostmaster we happen to come across at that time, So do not
make it personal.

And as far as I concern, Elvis are making this proposal at good of whole
community, there is no his personal interest involved, as he is an IP
broker now, passing this proposal only means less business for him but not
more business.



  You are accusing me abuse, please provide evident since you are doing

Again, Abuse is an strong statement and it is not an simple opinion. in

Hi,

Gert, sorry but I don't want to leave things unclear so I'll send this
one last reply to Lu. Please don't take into consideration any
discussions related to this issue when analyzing the 2015-01 approval.
It is off-topic but I think it shows a problem that needs to be
understood and maybe addressed.

 Previous abuse, where is your support for such accusation?

In my opinion based on the facts that I already mention this can be
called an abuse much more than what the 2 russians have done.

 OutsideHeaven is the company name, how it legally structured should not be
 relevant anyway.

No, as anyone can read OutsideHeaven is YOUR trade name. Maybe today you
have a corporation but on that time it was you (the person) trading as
some brand.


 
 Please provide evidence for following claim, otherwise you are just making
 accusation without any support evidence.
 
 He approved your request for hudreds of thousands of IPs, even approved
 this last-second allocation. 
 
 And the reality is, Elvis has never on the position to make final decision
 about our allocation.

You told us that. I can't know what happened during that allocations. I
only was refering to what you told us, that Elvis was the one that
approved your allocations. Maybe you know what happens behind the scene
but that should also bring some questions.

 Large IPv6 deployment does not justify IPv4 need, I think this is common
 knowledge.

It was just a supporting argument. Of course the main ones were that it
was a very large ISP with huge growth, millions of customers, thousands
of employees.

 Again, you are making false statement without any evidence, in reality, I
 have never done any business with Elvis now and past.

I don't know anything about any relation that might be between you and
Elvis. You pointed him out as the one giving you the IPs (approving the
requests).

Hi,

 I was called up by someone posting my personally information as well as my
 company information in the list, and all I did was defend my self.
 
 I would call the community as well as the Chair, to clarify, personal
 information and attack should not be put in to a policy discussion list,
 ever again.

I didn't mention your name, it was an example. Like you there are
others. I just showed the IPs which, after you sold them, are registered
to someone else so it would not have been that obvious that you are
behind them until you came up and took it presonally.

My intent was to point the finger at the situation and not at you. Like
we are analyzing the situation with the last /22s and not Mr. Bulgakov

Hello,

the discussion phase ended yesterday so this will not be put into

 -1We did a lot of analytics and do not support this idea. It will
 not help to reach the goal and will not help community, companies
 rearrange and get IPs. The transfer numbers show that 3%is not
 important and not against other members or people. 

The goal is to make it harder to abuse the last-/8 policy. This will
help.

 In other case if it will be implemented it will make more difficult
 some things, it will make unregulated market and will not help
 people and companies.  So you will get opposite result. 

In what way will it make things more difficult? The goal - again - is
to stop the abuse of a policy that was made to help newcomers to enter
the market.

 I am very surprised that lot of people who discuss it positive
 doesnt realy work or need it. They just tell own opinion. But we
 need to see the numbers. And we have to work for community but not
 against it!

Which community are you talking about? Who is this hurting and how?

 We just  finished own ripe database analitics and today some hours
 later we have today database update and can show fresh information.
 Ripe should care on other things much more but not here.

 We can give more analitics and also examples from database statistics.

You're not saying what your analytics are about but even so, the

Hi Ciprian:

Since it become personal attack again, I feel the need to responds. But at
least this time it was not random gmail address used by someone to hide
their identity. So I will responds:

Here is your example and my company happened to be the receivee to all of
three allocation you have mentioned.

*Let me give you an example: - 37.222.0.0/15 http://37.222.0.0/15 -
allocated on 05.04.2012 - 5.132.0.0/16 http://5.132.0.0/16 - allocated on
02.07.2012 - 5.224.0.0/15 http://5.224.0.0/15 - allocated on
06.09.2012All theese were given to a natural person from Netherlands.
During thattime I was working for a very large ISP that had a very
important IPv6deployment in place. I remember it was very difficult to get
a /14,/17and I was told it's necessary to get the RIPE NCC's board approval
forsuch a large allocation (I actually asked for a /13 but wouldn't get
it).Where are that IPs now ? Did this natural person expand that fast and
isnow a large ISP in Netherlands ? Most of them are already cashed out
formillions. This single example did more damage than all the hoarders
ofthe last /8. Was this possible without some inside help ? Has RIPE
NCCnoticed this kind of abuse (as it's not the only one) and did
anythingabout it ? Why are we focusing on the small fish ? Maybe it's, as
Isaid, just smoke meant to prevent us from seeing the real fire. I'llhave
to amend the Hamlet quote and say that something is rotten inNetherlands.*

My company as far as I can see, has growth substantially in past 3 years,
while I receive the allocation, there is no one I know from the hostmaster
team and in fact, I had huge debate with one of the hostmasters back then,
elvis, strong argument, days and nights argument, I can tell you, it was
not easy to get these allocations. And all the allocation I received was

Please do not use your way of business to judge what other people might
have done in their business, there are legit ways to make money other then
bribe people.

I would like to ask you some more days for discussion becouse a lot of people

opinion too.
Ripe free ips number is growing but you make it harder to get?! You are against 
ripe members?  Not speakeing anout 185.x right now. Its globaly. Why to make it 
harder? The policy you try to applay will not help you goal.
You should assist and try to help people to get ips that they need for business 
if ripe have them with some faer puporse. Current ip ranges are very small and 
may not care on big owners who use lot of ip networs like /16 /15 and etc. Ripe 
should take more care on database and better take back ips that were get from 
ripe somehow with strange puporses.
I dont see any good idea here. It will even not help one companies to help 
other companies to arrange needed ip amount.
If you think you should resist ip redistrebution and interfere geting ips 
legaly from ripe may be better lets stop IP distribution at all and close ripe?
Ripe should help up distribution. Its the goal of ripe.  Ever if you read the 
propousal puporse you will undersnand that it will not help, even if it happen 
nothing strange will happen. But the result that will be published later will 
confirm that you where wrong.
Please give some days for discussion if that possible.

there is not enough support for the proposal as it stands.

Since we (*) have not yet come to a conclusion, it is too early to say
whether the proposal will proceed to Last Call or enter another round

What it does is making it harder to sell them away right afterwards, but
this is quite a difference.

Guten Tag,
 Hi!

 Fully support your arguments.

 09.06.2015, 13:42, Storch Matei ma...@profisol.ro:
 Hi,

 I oppose this proposal, mainly because of the RIPE NCC's points of view
 regarding this proposal. Reading the impact analysis, it is my understanding
 that this policy will not make a real difference from the RIPE NCC's point
 of view, and that if the rate of requesting new /22s remains the same, the
 pool of available Ipv4 resources will last more than 5 years from now -
 which from my point of view is a long time.
The 5-year-calculation is based on a linear growth - as v4 availability
will be more and more limited, there will most likely be more companies
looking to receive PI addresses (which aren't available anymore), which
will cause them to become an LIR for the sole purpose of receiving their
own address space. So without other effects of returned addresses, I
would imagine that timeframe to be more like 3 years in the end. Now
look at the uptake of IPv6 at both providers and end customers - do you
really believe that the Internet will be ready to go IPv6-only within
three years? I would love to see that, but I seriously doubt it ... so
anybody left at that point in time with only IPv6 addresses will be
f*cked ...
 Also, this procedure of opening new LIRs benefits the current LIRs because
 it finances the RIPE NCC, and will cause the membership fee to be lowered.
 Just do 179 (transferred in the last eight months) times 2000 euros setup
 fee alone. It's an important chunk of change in my opinion, and it is in the
 current LIRs interest that this money keeps flowing in.
Financial reasons aren't the scope of the WG (and neither should nor are
they I believe for RIPE) as far as ensuring the Internet with it's
reliance on IPv4 are concerned. RIPE got bye well before the run on the
final IPv4 addresses began, and I believe even if we stop(ped) hoarders
from abusing the system in order to get around the one /22 limit, they
will still be able to get around fine. Also, you can't argue both sides
in your favor - either you say there is no problem as there aren't many
hoarders, or you say that the income is essential and shouldn't be
dismissed. Saying both contradicts yourself ... (additionally, I don't
think monthly fees would be noticeably lower even with additional
hoarders coming in)

 Also, if this policy will be adopted, it is my opinion that it should be
 enforced on the /22s allocated after the adoption of this policy. Otherwise,
 from my point of view, it would be a change of the rules during the game
 and it would have retroactive effects - which is not ok.
Oh, so somebody tries to abuse the intent of a policy, and they
shouldn't be subject to possible changes of the system? The price for
the /22's he's getting only doubled, so I believe that's still OK. Bad Luck.

Regards, Garry

Guten Tag,
 I opposite this proposal.

 It only will increase the price of the block, RIPE won't be get 
 payment from this scheme and will increase the price of membership
I don't see why this proposal causes a price increase for legitimate LIRs
that plan on operating instead of just existing for the cause of receiving a
/22 then transfer to another LIR ...

Personally, I believe the proposal (or a later extension of the policy)
should also limit the intake of /22 from the last /8 on the receiving end -
while I do understand that for any late entry into the Internet market the
limitation of getting around with just one /22 is causing a certain degree
of hardship, it's still something that should not be relieved just by
throwing money at it, while new companies with even later entry into the
market end up without any v4 addresses at all due to hoarders ... so
limiting transfer-in to something like 3x /22 over the period of 5 years
(for example) could make it even more expensive (albeit, again, would not
completely rule out hoarding)

Anyway, as a first step, I support 2015-01 ...

Regards, Garry

Hi Arash,

 This policy proposal will not prevent organisations from setting up one or
 more LIRs and hoarding the /22s. It will only add a two-year restriction
 before a /22 from the last /8 can be transferred.

The 24 month period will increase the cost of the 'hoarding' ... which makes it 
a lot less attractive to do it..  
This policy change will make it a lot more expensive for the current 'abusers 
of the intent of the policy' to see this as a viable business model..

2015-06-09 Thread Ciprian Nica
Hi Gert,

Maybe my message was a little too extensive. I was in the room in London
when the subject was discussed and I remember all the details.

What should be pointed out is the effects of the policy and if the
community will benefit from it or some small group of people.

To summarize the effects will be :
 - higher membership fees
 - higher IPv4 prices on the market
What is the expected positive effect ? To preserve the last /8 pool ?
The one that increased to 18.1 million IPs ?

There are many problems, issues, reasons, for anyone to sustain or be
against this policy but setting all aside, let's just focus on the
benefits of adopting this policy. Is anyone convinced that it will bring
a positive effect to the RIPE community ? That's whom the policies
should serve.

We have another saying in Romania don't sell the bear's skin while he's
in the forrest, so I will not consider reasonable that last /8 is in
any real danger. The available IPv4 resources were in danger and we, the
entire community, were unable to come up with better policies to
preserve them, but that's in the past.

Ciprian

 Profit is very explicitely not the reason behind this.
 
 Even if Elvis is driving the policy - those who care to also *read* this
 list know that he volunteered after the issue of fast-trading /22s was 
 brought up at the RIPE meeting in London, and those in the room agreed 
 that this is unwanted use of the last-/8 policy.  It was not something
 he came up with to increase his profits.
 
 Argueing the merits of this proposal based on people's behaviour on
 addresses *not* from the last /8 is also not overly useful.  Yes, we 
 should have all deployed IPv6 earlier, and this whole mess would have never
 happened.
 
 The reason for this policy is to make sure that the community keeps to 
 the *intent* of the last /8 policy: ensure that newcomers in the market 
 will have a bit of IPv4 space available to number their translation gear 
 to and from IPv6.  It will not completely achieve that, of course, but
 make the obvious loophole less attractive.
 
 (So the argument let's burn IPv4 and be done with it! is also outside
 the scope of this proposal - if you want to get rid of the last-/8 policy,
 feel free to propose a new proposal to that extent)

Only on very exceptional circumstances.  Like, sustained personal attacks

In general, a consensus based process living on an *open and publically

at the same time, I think the openness works in our favour, as in many

Hi!

 thus they should vote on this policy, as it might impact their memberships 
 directly.

In my opinion it's absolutely right and current matter should be submitted for 
common voting.

It's important to do this way because:

1) The proposal offer important change to IPv4 policy;
2) The proposal potentially affects many LIR's;
3) Only a small part of LIR's participate in present discussion;

So I think the only way to make fair decision is to ask all LIR's regarding 
their opinion.

09.06.2015, 17:28, Storch Matei ma...@profisol.ro:
 Guten Tag Garry,

 I didn't argue both ways, one was the opinion of the RIPE NCC in their impact 
 analysis (in my understanding), and the other one was my opinion.
 Maybe financial discussions are not important to this group, but I do think 
 they are important to RIPE members altogether, so in my opinion it is a valid 
 argument, to which the members should be made aware of, and thus they should 
 vote on this policy, as it might impact their memberships directly.
 And, some time ago, there was a vivid discussion between members, that Ipv6 
 adoption should be encouraged intensly. If the free pool of Ipv4, there is no 
 better encouragement than that. Of course this has pros and cons, but it is a 
 reality, as long as ipv4 exists, and is still available as allocation or 
 transfer, ipv6 will not be fully adopted. In my opinion this policy will 
 prolongue the process of ipv6 adoption. Of course some people will benefit 
 from this, but the big picture should be taken into consideration, as long as 
 the procentage is not a high one (10% in my opinion is low).

 A big minus from me to this policy as I think that profit should not be

Profit is very explicitely not the reason behind this.

Even if Elvis is driving the policy - those who care to also *read* this
list know that he volunteered after the issue of fast-trading /22s was 
brought up at the RIPE meeting in London, and those in the room agreed 
that this is unwanted use of the last-/8 policy.  It was not something
he came up with to increase his profits.

Argueing the merits of this proposal based on people's behaviour on
addresses *not* from the last /8 is also not overly useful.  Yes, we 
should have all deployed IPv6 earlier, and this whole mess would have never
happened.

The reason for this policy is to make sure that the community keeps to 
the *intent* of the last /8 policy: ensure that newcomers in the market 
will have a bit of IPv4 space available to number their translation gear 
to and from IPv6.  It will not completely achieve that, of course, but
make the obvious loophole less attractive.

(So the argument let's burn IPv4 and be done with it! is also outside
the scope of this proposal - if you want to get rid of the last-/8 policy,
feel free to propose a new proposal to that extent)

 With the limited amount of data available (since this effect only started
 over the last year or so), you can fit about every curve you like into
 it - exponential, linear, quadratic. None will be a very reasonable

Oh, I could say that we told people very clearly what would come, but
since they refused to go to IPv6, it was inevitable that they would

with maybe more stringent checks about actual use (easily fooled),

And we do know how the yelling and screaming of total surprise will sound

 Hi,

  - increase membership fees
 Based on what? Because would-be IP-hoarders and people hoping to gain by
 abusing the policy to limit IPv4 usage will be incentivised NOT to keep
 opening LIRs and by that not bring additional income to RIPE? I doubt
 that not gaining from hoarders will increase cost for RIPE and therefore
 its members ... last time I checked, RIPE's income was rather stable and
 usually well on the black side ... why do you believe this policy change
 will alter that?

It's simple math. Any new LIR would pay 2000 EUR besides the yearly fee.
I think it can be considered a hoarding tax which at this moment seems
quite considerable when compared to the profit of the hoarder. We all
benefit from that money. RIPE needs to keep a stable income therefore
the membership fee is lowered when more new LIRs are established.

  - increase IPv4 address prices
 ... but only for companies unwilling to get bye with what they have and
 push IPv6 deployment and growth ... of course this may put some strain
 to newcomers, but imagine the strain on newcomers if they can't receive
 ANY IPv4 from RIRs anymore because hoarders have ensured that RIRs don't
 have any available anymore, thus requiring them to get their required
 IPv4 address on the market for even higher prices ...

I was part of the team that had the largest IPv6 deployment in the
world, long time before the exhaustion. It's not that easy to achieve
full IPv6 deployment and I'm sure that most of the buyers of IPv4
resources can't deploy IPv6 and even if they do, they can't give up on
IPv4 yet. Dual stack is the only real solution and it doesn't exclude
the need for IPv4. If you were at the last RIPE meeting in Amsterdam
maybe you have heared about a few cases of IPv6 deployments and their
problems.

  - help the last /8 pool become even larger
 Measures for IP space conservation have ensured availability of
 addresses over the last ~10 years - if sensible decisions about policies
 cause push the frame further than previous measures have, I'd say: Job
 well done! Hopefully, by the time the Internet disables IPv4 there are
 still IPv4 addresses available for assignment by RIRs ...

Here I can't agree but I also can't contradict you. There are opinions
that say if the perspective that IPv4 will really be exhausted it will
push ISPs to deploy IPv6 sooner. If you tell them that there will be
IPv4 resources for RIPE to give even in 10-20 years, then probably many
will say let's see if we live to that time and then we'll make a decision.

 A policy is adopted today for today's situation. Personally I would not
 care what the original intent was, I would only focus on solving today's
 issues. I don't expect the original intent was to have a last /8 pool
 that would just keep growing forever.
 An additional /22 you give out today because you don't see a problem
 TODAY can't just be recovered tomorrow when a new LIR needs a /22 and
 you don't have any available anymore ... that's why the community HAS to
 think of tomorrow's problems instead of just living in the today!

All IPs that are bought today cost money and I'm sure everyone that gets
them, needs them. It's not like in the past when you could get a /12 for
free. Therefore I would try to help those that need today IPs and not
those that keep them waiting for the price to grow.

 of some russians taking advantage and making a profit but I'm also aware
 that's just a small crumble and it won't affect our bread.
 With the growing shortage of IPv4 addresses, prices will go up, making
 even the currently discussed policy change unsuited to keep people from
 gaming the system ... at current rate, the cost for a /22 network
 through LIR registration is roughly at 2€/IP. The policy change raises
 that to 4€ ... what if you can get 10€/IP? 150% profit for a /22 is a
 pretty convincing business model ...

Let's not help the prices raise then. The demand for IPs is supported by
real needs as otherwise nobody would pay so much money for them. In a
free economy when you shorten the supply, prices will grow. If there
would have been a policy that would say let's get back the IPs from
those who don't use them, that would really help.

Solving the problem 100% and perfectly is utopia.

This is one step in the right direction, and as we are discussing how to

explaining why. It should also be obvious that even if 50 /8s were recovered

Guten Tag,
 Hi Garry,

 It's simple math. Any new LIR would pay 2000 EUR besides the yearly fee.
 I think it can be considered a hoarding tax which at this moment seems
 quite considerable when compared to the profit of the hoarder. We all
 benefit from that money. RIPE needs to keep a stable income therefore
 the membership fee is lowered when more new LIRs are established.

 I was part of the team that had the largest IPv6 deployment in the
 world, long time before the exhaustion. It's not that easy to
 achieve full IPv6 deployment and I'm sure that most of the buyers of
 IPv4 resources can't deploy IPv6 and even if they do, they can't give
 up on IPv4 yet. Dual stack is the only real solution and it doesn't
 exclude the need for IPv4. If you were at the last RIPE meeting in
 Amsterdam maybe you have heared about a few cases of IPv6 deployments
 and their problems. 
.. just as there have been problems for early ISPs on IPv4 ... what's
the relevance of that in this context?  It's hard to deploy v6, so we
need to stick to v4! ???
  - help the last /8 pool become even larger
 Measures for IP space conservation have ensured availability of
 addresses over the last ~10 years - if sensible decisions about policies
 cause push the frame further than previous measures have, I'd say: Job
 well done! Hopefully, by the time the Internet disables IPv4 there are
 still IPv4 addresses available for assignment by RIRs ...
 Here I can't agree but I also can't contradict you. There are opinions
 that say if the perspective that IPv4 will really be exhausted it will
 push ISPs to deploy IPv6 sooner. If you tell them that there will be
 IPv4 resources for RIPE to give even in 10-20 years, then probably many
 will say let's see if we live to that time and then we'll make a decision.
OK, maybe we are getting somewhere: Apart from you contradicting
yourself in part, you would consider IPv4 shortage to push v6
deployment. Good. So what do you believe would happen if all RIRs
dropped IPv4 conservation policies tomorrow. Let's say the impeding doom
of no IPv4 addresses available would push everybody to ask for
additional addresses, causing all addresses being used up by December
31st. Do you believe that all ISPs _AND_USERS_ would be v6-ready by that
date? Or Dec 31st 2016? What about 2017? Personally, I reckon if we all
(all ISPs, all users, all IoT devices) made a migration by 2020 I'd be
really surprised ... Sure, impending doom (IPv4 runout) might speed
migration up to a certain degree, but corporations move slow. Heck, we
still have analog modem dial-ups in certain (many?) parts of the world.
Do you really believe the Internet can get around without using v4 any
time soon? And that's the whole point of the policy - ensuring that new
entries to the market - be it ISPs or companies - are still able to
receive at least a basic set of v4 addresses for foreseeable time,
otherwise they will need to find someone willing to sell them addresses,
most likely at some inflated prices ... RIR's policies are the one thing
that keeps prices DOWN, because legitimate use has a calculable pricetag
and does not rely on free market ...
 Let's not help the prices raise then. The demand for IPs is supported
 by real needs as otherwise nobody would pay so much money for them. In
 a free economy when you shorten the supply, prices will grow. If there
 would have been a policy that would say let's get back the IPs from
 those who don't use them, that would really help. 
But we have a limited supply - if RIRs didn't put policies in place to
reduce IP use, we would have already run out quite some time ago. Just
by ignoring the fact that there is an IP shortage doesn't make it go away.

previous policies.

I didn't want to get involved into discussing this policy as I noticed
everyone gets in all kind of details which don't get the problem solved.
I don't believe this policy is a usefull step in the right direction.

As I mentioned earlier there are no positive effects, it doesn't help
conserve the last /8 pool and there are no benefits to the community by
adopting it. That's what's important. All other discussions lead to
polemics that should be taken somewhere else. Maybe at the RIPE meetings.

As said many-many times /22 reselling from last /8 is not significant.

I really tired to repeat this. And It's objective view. You (and anybody else) 
can calculate all digest which were brought and make sure it's really so.

But I hear again and again that we should stop abusing, it's not intend of 
last /8 policy etc WITHOUT real arguments.

It will be better to start from owners of really big (and unused) blocks which 
were allocated by RIPE NCC to such owners before last /8.

 _WHO_ is this policy change affecting? Any legitimate business not set
 on circumventing RIPE policy will, as Ciprian wrote, become an LIR in
 order to use the IPs. And use them for 2+ years ... the only situations
 that come to mind in which an LIR might want to transfer their IPs is
 either if they are being bought (tough luck for the buying company, at
 least they will not be able to transfer ownership for up to two years),
 or if they go broke, in which case the IPs assigned wouldn't need to be

Hi,

If RIPE would enforce (just like with asn) the announcement of received /22s 
within a period of 1-2 months after the allocation, hoarding would be stopped. 
The sellers would not be able to advertise them as brand new never used, as 
this detail gives them the most of their value. 
Also, reinforcing the need of justification for requesting the /22, would slow 
the hoarders, as they would need to come up with (verifyable) justification.

There were lots of valid points against this policy, because it does not 
address the real problem, and moreso, RIPE NCC directly said that in their 
opinion it will have no effect over the small hoarding that is going on now. 
Please read the RIPE NCC impact analysis and you will see this.

not really, no.  RIPE NCC assigned number resources were and are assigned
on the basis of the resource holder adhering to RIPE policy.  Policy
changes which apply retroactively to existing number resources have been

 Also, if this policy will be adopted, it is my opinion that it

This policy does not change anything in regarding to the IP objects.
It changes the transfer requirements. A transfer that has *not yet
happend* can not be affected ex post facto.

What you're postulating is something like I should not have to go to

go to jail if you steal something after theft was made illegal. So

Let's do this. The proposal will prevent a lot of what is going on
today especially with the MA changes that the executive board did
come up with.

Everyone can see the allocation numbers in the RIPE Labs article. The
number of LIRs closed on member request in 2014 is as high as the
*whole* amount of LIRs closed in the years before. The amount of LIRs
closed in 2014 as a whole more than doubled from 2013. This abuse of
the last-/8 policy is only going to get worse and I think it will
accelerate in speed.

We can always extend the policy to close other loopholes later if they
come up. But right now I think we should stop this behaviour ASAP.

This counts as support.

Hi Sasha,

 A LIR now joining the RIPE NCC has no way of determining what the
 spirit of a policy is. (bar, perhaps, reading all apwg
 discussions leading to it) The letter of the document is all that
 counts and IPRAs can't make determinations based on the spirit
 either, otherwise this proposal would not be necessary.
 So, yes, an assumption that one can join the NCC now and get a
 /22 with the intent to sell it is reasonable.

The policy actually says that The LIR must confirm it will make assignment(s) 
from the allocation. See https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-643#51. 
This is not the case if the intent is to sell the prefix.

Re: [address-policy-wg] 2015-01 Draft Document and Impact Analysis Published (Alignment of Transfer Requirements for IPv4 Allocations)

2015-05-12 Thread Marco Schmidt

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your questions.

The proposal would only put into place a 24 month holding period for 
allocations that were made by the RIPE NCC. For allocations that are 
transferred between LIRs, an identical (24 month) holding period already 
exists.


It has already been mentioned on the mailing list, but I would like to 
confirm that the RIPE NCC would not revert any previous transfers if the 
proposal is accepted. But for all new transfer requests, the RIPE NCC 
would check that at least 24 months had elapsed since the allocation was 
originally made.


I hope this helps.

Kind regards

If my interpretation of the IA is correct, the retroactive part is
restricted to evaluation of transfer requests. It means if/once the
policy is implemented, it applies to resources already allocated by RIPE
NCC but not yet transferred. Resources already transferred wont be
affected. I think this is a sensible approach.


Quoting Marco:

The proposal would apply to allocations that were made in the past. 
Whenthe RIPE NCC received a transfer request, we would check to see 
that at least 24 months had elapsed since the allocation was made. 
For example, a /22 allocation that was made 23 months before the 
proposal was accepted would have a waiting period of one month before 
it could be transferred.


What kind of allocations is talking Marco about? RIPE to LIR or LIR to 
LIR?


Regards,

 A LIR now joining the RIPE NCC has no way of determining what the
 spirit of a policy is. (bar, perhaps, reading all apwg
 discussions leading to it) The letter of the document is all that
 counts and IPRAs can't make determinations based on the spirit
 either, otherwise this proposal would not be necessary.

You have a point about the spirit of the policy not necessarily being clear 
from the policy's text.

That said, I find it hard to read the current policy in a way where you could 
reasonably make the assumptions you make a case for defending.

The document isn't limited to a 5.5 that stands on its own, and anyone reading 
this point alone cannot honestly claim to act in good faith.

Additionally, the loophole in the policy is a clear discrepancy, one which an 
interested party would ask for clarification about and not merely pretend 
wasn't there.

Going along the route you've chosen therefore seems somewhat disingenuous to 
me, sorry.

So, yes, an assumption that one can join the NCC now and get a
/22 with the intent to sell it is reasonable. 
Much as the assumption that one can join the NCC now and receive

a /22 to assign it to customers, is. There are already ideas - in
this very discussion - about forcing LIRs to return all v4 space
not already assigned and, if that ever becomes a proposal, this
very discussion will be used to argue that that would not be
retroactive.


Well, so you say it will not stop the bad guys from doing their
stuff in the next few months, so we should not do it at all, so
they can keep up the business for the next years, am I
understanding this correctly?


I'm saying that endangering a lot of innocents - via an, in my
opinion, dangerous precedent - is too high a price to pay to catch
a limited number of baddies. 


For the record, before I get accused of acting in bad faith
again, I have no dog in this race. I'm not managing any
allocations that are either up for transfer or, ttbomk, younger
than 2 years.

This has already happened before (remember 2007-01?) and it happens

2007-01 is a good example of why ex post facto changes are a bad
idea. This was controversial then and is still controversial
today, especially the application to resources long since
assigned. Had I known then what I know now, I would have opposed
it more stringently.

For example, criteria for making IPv4 assignments, 5 years ago, is no 
longer the same today, the IPv4 policy has changed several times since 
2010 and everything that used to be policy in the past no longer 
matters, what matters is the latest policy document and not the 
criteria from years ago.


Well, had last /8 been applied ex post facto, we would all have
had to return our /20s and /16s etc. ;) (and we've seen ideas to
that or similar effect floating around on the list these last few
weeks!) As a LIR, I would want some security that what was
perfectly appropriate last year does not suddenly expose me to
sanction because someone decided, after the fact, that it should
have been illegal all along. (not this proposal specifically, but
the precedent)

It will not be a precedent, the precedent has been already approved 
years ago.


Thank you for proving my point. Because it was done for 2007-01
it can now be done for 2015-01. So if, next week, the community
decides that all allocations  /22 should never have been made, I
lose the ones I have already? Because it was already done for
2015-01 which was done because it was already done for 2007-01?

I would not support an implementation that would require the RIPE NCC 
to apply the same policy differently for an allocation received on the 
20th of July vs an allocation received on the 21st of July. This 
policy proposal's intent is to bring all allocations under the same 
umbrella (once implemented) and not create more umbrellas..


I'll only apply to allocations made = 2 years before the
implementation date for a maximum of 2 years. Not, IMO, such a
problem.

Hi all!

I don't understand true reasons of this proposal creation.

Let's think together. If it was created to interrupt exhaustion of
IPv4 blocks, I want retort:
today, 11.05.2015 have been allocated 6392 IPv4 from last /8
(last block is 185.99.220.0/22, 256/4=64, 64*99=6336, 6336+224/4=6392)

If we go here 
https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/resource-transfers-and-mergers/ipv4-transfers/table-of-transfers
press ctrl+F and input 185. we can see 508 results, but we should
devide it by 2, due to there are 2 results in one transfer. So there
are 254 transfers of IPv4 from the last /8. It is 4% from all
allocated IPv4 /8.

Also you should draw your attention to some LIRs who make more than 10
transfers every day. Yes, they don't transfer IPs from last /8. But
did you think how many resources RIPE can fill if it returns unused
resources? May be we will think globaly but don't about how to close a
hole doesn't affect IPv4 exhaustion.

So I oppose this proposal.
