Now that we've reached the magic ZERO in the free pool, what does the community think about this new draft policy? Should ARIN begin the process of streamlining the IPv4 policy so that it is geared more toward the transfer market, and remove "need" as a criteria in certain sections of the NRPM to

+1 Keeping needs basis in the NRPM will only drive the transfers underground. Some are already using all kind of financial tricks (futures contracts, lease contracts, etc) and are waiting for the needs basis criteria to be removed from NRPM in order to register the transfers in the ARIN

And your position has nothing to do with what you stand to gain as IPv6 becomes more popular and yet IPv4 isn't so constrained as to hamper traffic growth. Why don't we instead completely refrain from allegations of wrongdoing with regard to one's opinions about the policies? Matthew
