"we" is the org I'm the POC for, Internet Partners, Inc., as opposed to me
-not- speaking officially
for that org (which I normally do on this list) Sorry to not make that more
clear.
Yes, I saw Daves reply. The fact that 8.3 is "new" does not remove the need
for the minor
edits and reorganization of the NRPM text that Dave was referring to, that's
why we
support it.
And yes I also know that the Board is going to do what it wants, so it is
kind of futile to
even bother commenting in opposition or support at this point. But I don't
want the board
to actually start believing it's own back-patting that everything is all
fixed now.

Hi Ted,
Please see David Farmer's earlier reply to Joe Miller. Also please be more
specific on who the "we" are in your email.

We still oppose 2009-1 as the removal of the sunset clause by the
Board fundamentally changed the proposal, and the mixture of
"merger" transfers in 8.2 and "unrestricted" transfers in 8.3
did not allow for the community to separately comment and consider
the 2 issues.
If Section 8.3 was struck out we would not oppose the proposal.

> *8.1. Principles*

> *8.2. Mergers and Acquisitions*
> ARIN will consider requests for the transfer of number
> resources in the case of mergers and acquisitions upon

> * An authenticated copy of the instrument(s) effecting the
> transfer of assets, e.g., bill of sale, certificate of

> * A detailed inventory of all assets utilized by the
> requesting party in maintaining and using the number resource.
> * A list of the requesting party's customers using the number
> resource.
>
> If further justification is required, the requesting party
> may be asked to provide any of the following, or other
> supporting documentation, as
> applicable:
>
> * A general listing of the assets or components acquired
> * A specific description of acquisitions, including:
>
> o Type and quantity of equipment
> o Customer base
>
> * A description of how number resources are being utilized
> * Network engineering plans, including:
>
> Host counts
> Subnet masking
> Network diagrams
> Reassignments to customers
>
> *8.3 Transfers to Specified Recipients*
> IPv4 number resources within the ARIN region may be released
> to ARIN by the authorized resource holder, in whole or in
> part, for transfer to another specified organizational
> recipient. Such transferred number resources may only be
> received under RSA by organizations that are within the ARIN
> region and can demonstrate the need for such resources, as a
> single aggregate, in the exact amount which they can justify
> under current ARIN policies.

> Changes to 2009-1 as revised by the AC:

> * Removed 2.8 organization definition
> * Limited to IPv4 address space
> * Maintained ARIN as the intermediary
