Text

• Policy statement Any RIR's resource registrant
  may transfer IPv4 addresses to the resource
  registrant of another RIR as long as the two RIRs
  agree and exercise Internet stewardship and the
  values expressed in RFC2050.
• Rationale Since individual RIRs now allow
  transfers, it makes sense to be able to transfer
  between regions as well.
• Timetable for implementation upon ratification
  of all five RIRs
• Timetable for de-implementation upon change to
  this policy text in any RIR

Direction

• Wanted to support the ability to transfer
  addresses from those who do not need them to
  those who do, even if it is across RIRs
• Wanted to keep the policy simple
• Allow RIRs the flexibility to do what is needed
• Wanted to uphold the principles of Internet
  stewardship and principles of RFC 2050

Thoughts

• Will it work?
• Benefits?
• Needed?
• Plan to take your feed back and submit a policy
  proposal
• Submitted in ARIN. Would be happy to work with
  someone in RIPE if interested.
