Dear Community Members,
Last week in Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil, the LACNIC 27 meeting considered
7 policy proposals.
Four proposal reached consensus and were moved to the 45-day final
comment period. Two proposals did not reach consensus and continue to
be under discussion. One proposal was abandoned, while another proposal
was abandoned shortly before the meeting.
Please see below for more detail.
Proposals reaching consensus

- LAC-2017-4: Modify the minimum size of initial allocations to ISPs
This would reduce the minimum IPv4 allocation from /22 to a /24 to
assist with exhaustion management.

Allows the LACNIC Board of Directors to extend the period for
operators to meet policy requirements before the addresses
recovery process in cases where the recourses form critical
