Hi Bill, this actually looks like a problem on the list mailserver vs. my client. Please do ignore the last spew.


Best,

Thanks Marty,

But the text you cite below as part of Section 3 was changed (as you know) by the AC to the following:
3. Address Allocations from the Reclamation Pool by the IANA
Allocations from the Reclamation Pool may begin once the pool is declared active.
Addresses in the Reclamation Pool must be allocated on a CIDR boundary.
Allocations from the Reclamation Pool are subject to a minimum allocation unit
equal to the minimum allocation unit of all RIRs and a maximum allocation unit
of one /8. The Reclamation Pool will be divided on CIDR boundaries and
distributed evenly to all eligible RIRs once each quarter. Any remainder not
evenly divisible by the number of eligible RIRs will remain in the Reclamation
Pool until such time sufficient address returns allow another round of allocations.

This change was editorial and did not alter the substance of the Policy Draft.  I bring this up because we want everyone to be considering the most current text in their assessments and be thoroughly and consistently informed.

Hello PPML: A fair amount of feedback was received with regards to the Subject proposal. The original authors of the proposal discussed all of the feedback and additional suggestions are below: 1. Allocation method was unfair The intent was not for a single RIR to be able to be allocated all available address space in mass quantities. We do however want any available address space to be utilized if there is need. We've addressed what we would characterize as a mechanical issue. --new text Section 3. Address Allocations from the Reclamation Pool by the IANA Allocations from the Reclamation Pool may begin once the pool is declared active. Addresses in the Reclamation Pool must be allocated on a CIDR boundary. Allocations from the Reclamation Pool are subject to a minimum allocation unit equal to the minimum allocation unit of all RIRs and a maximum allocation unit of one /8. The Reclamation Pool will be divided on CIDR boundaries and distributed evenly to all eligible RIRs once each quarter. Any remainder not evenly divisible by the number of eligible RIRs based on a CIDR boundary equal to or larger than the minimum allocation unit will remain in the Reclamation Pool. Addresses that are left over will be held in the Reclamation Pool until additional IP addresses can be returned to rejoin addresses on CIDR boundaries to the Reclamation Pool or a minimum allocation unit is set to allow allocation from existing inventory. 2. Without excluding transition space, some RIR's would never be eligible We've defined a /10 credit to be applied for "all" pools of address space set-aside by any RIR that has them. --new text Section 4. RIR Eligibility for Receiving Allocations from the Reclamation Pool Upon the exhaustion of an RIR's free space pool and after receiving their final /8 from the IANA[3], an RIR will become eligible to request address space from the IANA Reclamation Pool when it publicly announces via its respective global announcements email list and by posting a notice on its website that it has exhausted its supply of IPv4 address space. Exhaustion is defined as an inventory of less than the equivalent of a single /8 and the inability to further assign address space to its customers in units equal to or shorter than the longest of any RIR's policy defined minimum allocation unit. Up to one /10 or equivalent of IPv4 address space specifically reserved for any special purpose by an RIR will not be counted against that RIR when determining eligibility unless that space was received from the IANA reclamation pool. Any RIR that is formed after the ICANN Board of Directors has ratified this policy is not eligible to utilize this policy to obtain IPv4 address space from the IANA. 3. Transfer Rights No plans to make suggestions that the AC modify transfer. 4. Additional comments One comment [Bill H.] seemed to adequately represent all who may believe that such a policy is not needed or required; 'No one in their right mind would return address space to an RIR considering how much it might be worth'. I'm aware of at least one entity that has signed up to return a /8 in the next month or two. Stay tuned.
