The right answer is a return to an enviroment where there is no address 
shortage.  Of course that spells IPv6.


Getting back to the the simple record keeping role is already there in 
IPv6 when there is no shortage of addresseses.  The only issue is getting 
to a tipping point where v6 is used more than v4.  Without a shortage, we 
can get back to the end to end way of life, and not have to deal with 
CIDR, NAT or any other address conservation method.  It also brings RIR's 
back to their original record keeping role, without having to police the 
number of addresses that a member needs.


I would like to get back to end to end, even for IOT devices.  I would 
like to directly address them as well, rather than relaying via the 
maker's server.  I would like some of those things like doorbell cameras, 
but I do not want to be dependent on other peoples servers, or orphaned 
devices caused when the servers are removed. That way, any downtime is 
100% under my control. V6 gets us back to the way of the internet in the 
early days when every host had a public address.  Of course getting 
everyone else who has not adopted it has always been the challenge. I 
doubt there is any magic bullet to IPv6 adoption, but clearly IPv4 cannot 
be the long term answer, with less than 1 address per living person 
available.

It would appear so.

To be frank however, I'm not fully persuaded that the term "landlord"
should be so cavalierly tossed around as an epithet with distinctly
negative connotations.  After all, landlords are job creators!  Just
ask our Job Creator in Chief!

Consideration should also be given to the possibility that Internet
landlords could be a good thing.  Imagine if you will that in some
cases, counties and municipalities might snatch up blocks of IP
addresses and then use them to provide the Internet equivalent of
Section 8 housing for poor folks who would otherwise be obliged to
go without.

But seriously folks, the truth is that I myself have never resolved my
own internal debate between top-down socialism and unfettered laissez
faire capitalism.  Thus, one day I'll be out in the streets defending
the absolute right of Walmart to chase homeless people off their private
property, and the next day I'll be out in the streets protesting the
stranglehold that the 1% has on the media.

In theory, the entire RIR system could simply cease to exist, except for
their record keeping role, and all of the remaining IPs could be sold off
to the highest bidders.  This would result in the laissez faire capitalism
end game for IP addresses, and yes, there would inevitably be robber
baron landlords and perhaps even an eventual very destructive attempt on
someone's part to "corner the market".  Or we can just keep things as they
are now, which is a kind of benevolent socialism where we make at least
some effort, pretentious or otherwise, to give "to each according to his
needs."

I don't know the right answer, and to be frank, I worry a lot about
anybody who thinks that they do.  The present system has worked for
quite a long time, but not without what I see as many notable failures,
the most grotesque of which having only been recently uncovered by myself
in a different region.

One short anecdote may help to illustrate the fundamentally insoluable
economics conundrum.

Recently, while talking via skype to my new friend Jan in South Africa,
he noted to me that the government there is now being forced... by dire
financial circumstances... to seriously consider privatizing some or all
of Eskom, the country's government-owned and massively money-losing
electric utility.  (Note also that Eskom's huge financial troubles have
been linked to allegations of corruption.)

I laughed when Jan told me this, and informed him that here in my home
state of California, our governor has publicly speculated about going
in the exact opposite direction... perhaps having the state take over
the troubled and embattled Pacific Gas & Electric Company... PG
in the wake of its apparent failures to perform routine maintenance...
generally considered to be the root cause of numerous massive wildfires...
thereby hopefully insuring that in future, paying regular dividends to
shareholders will no longer take precedence over badly needed maintenance
expenditures.

So which is better?  Socialist state control or laissez faire capitalism?

Taxes. That's how it works in real estate anyway. You can own as much
land as you can afford but you have to pay taxes on all of it. And you
can lose it to both clean-it-or-lein-it and adverse possession. And
you have liability when folks get hurt on your land. And there are tax
incentives to push ownership over leasing when folks who want it come
knocking. So lots of down sides to owning land that you're not using
as effectively as your neighbors.

Bill Herrin

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).

Corrected, year 0 to 5 and BOP to EOP = 105 /24's. However, apples to
apples occurs when comparing /24's to /24's. :)

[ clip broken math, insert good math]

A /16 would probably be forgiving and return a /16. Noise. But worthy in
the current context.

The 4.10 pool needs more run rate IMHO. However, a thumb in the air would

Whether it is done this way or not, would be a question for the RSHD and/or 
John Sweeting. I honestly don’t know the current practice.

(JS)>>Yes, this is the way they are handled in current policy. All special 
reserved pool IPv4 addresses are returned to the pool they are reserved for. 

However, codifying it in policy (it is not currently) is good either way as 
it provides clarity and ensures that it is done that way unless the community 
makes a deliberate change to the policy.

> - With regards returning any other returned, reclaimed or revoked 
resources that were not from the reserved pools to them, although I see the 
good intent of it I find it difficult to support it as we don't know numbers 
related to this at the present. The numbers of assignments from these reserved 
pools, the amount available and the forecast for it are necessary for this 
analysis.

The beauty of the way this proposal is structured is that it only 
replenishes those pools up to a historical 3-year supply.

So, for example, if the last three years saw the distribution of 25, 60, 
and 80 /24 equivalents, then a 3-year supply would be considered to be 165 /24 
equivalents. As the sliding three-year look-back window changes, so would the 
amount of supply required to consider the pool “full”.

the numbers mentioned point to the direction of the need of replenishing for 
these pools then the it may be necessary to review and discuss the supply time 
better. Without this information I cannot support this part of the proposal yet.

The information is probably available in the statistics on the ARIN web 
site. However, I agree that having staff provide more details would be useful 
in informing the discussion here. I will make a formal request.

Let's assume the pool size is a /15 and use an average rate of allocation
IXP+CI of 18 /24 per year.

YEAR  0 - YEAR 5 = 105 /24's (generous as I measured beginning of period to
end of period)

If we were going to bracket at five years we'd need a total of 88 /24's.
Which doesn't include returns. Although there probably aren't any. See
distraction below.

IIRC correctly the motivation on the CI pool was a pending flood of new
gTLD's. It was the period where the root was busted wide open for the wild
west of TLD's e,g. ".cakeisgood". Which happened on paper (and cash) but
didn't materialize numbers wise. It was a good insurance policy. Which
seems less needed now. Same for IXPs.
