The proposal reached consensus at the APNIC 43 Open Policy Meeting and at the APNIC AGM in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam in February 2017. https://conference.apnic.net/43 Following the Final Comment period, the APNIC Executive Council (EC) endorsed the consensus decisions at its June meeting and instructed the Secretariat to implement the changes. - prop-117: Returned IPv4 address management and Final /8 exhaustion The proposal simplifies and clarifies IPv4 pool management by stipulating that IPv4 103/8 address blocks recovered by APNIC will be placed into the 103/8 (Final /8) free pool. All other address blocks received by APNIC will continue to be placed in the IPv4 Recovered Pool. The version that reached consensus did not include aspects of the Final /8 pool exhaustion that had been under discussion in earlier versions of the proposal. https://www.apnic.net/policy/proposals/prop-117 Regards, Adam and George * sig-policy: APNIC SIG on resource management policy * _______________________________________________ sig-policy mailing list sig-policy@lists.apnic.net https://mailman.apnic.net/mailman/listinfo/sig-policy
