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

[Sweeting, John]

As I read the AFRINIC proposal it is to keep Global Companies that have global networks and are eligible to get address space from AFRINIC can do so but only for the portion of their networks that is located in the AFRINIC region and for connectivity directly into the AFRINIC region.

McTim,

I don't think it should be necessary to allow addresses to leave the AfriNIC region in order to pass this globally coordinated transfer policy. As I read it, passing both, in the absence of any local transfer policy in the AfriNIC region, would simply mean that AfriNIC does not object to other regions engaging in inter-RIR transfers, and would open up the possibility of AfriNIC participating at a later date if the community so chooses, perhaps upon exhaustion of the AfriNIC free pool.

Do you still see a conflict? If so, can you explain further?

Thanks,
Scott
