[arin-ppml] Policy Proposal 119: Globally Coordinated TransferPolicy - revised

All,

FYI a proposed policy in the AfriNIC region has the following clause:

"7.4) AfriNIC resources are for the AfriNIC geographical region. For
each allocation or assignment made during the Exhaustion Phase, no
more than 10% of these resources may be used outside of the AfriNIC
region, and any use outside the AfriNIC region shall be solely in
support of connectivity back to the AfriNIC region."

If this reaches consensus, it would probably mean that this global
policy (Policy Proposal 119: Globally Coordinated Transfer Policy)
wouldn't fly in the AfriNIC region.


-- 
Cheers,

McTim
