[arin-ppml] ARIN-2011-5: Shared Transition Space for IPv4 Address Extension - Last Call

[Chris Donley]

The draft actually *DID* get wg approval in OPSAWG in Beijing.  However, our only hope of adoption in advance of IANA exhaustion was to have the draft proceed as an AD-sponsored draft, and we were told to present in v6ops, as well.  We did not have enough support in v6ops for AD sponsorship (v6ops minutes show no consensus on the draft, either in favor or opposed), so we let the draft idle, as we were out of time.  I still believe that this draft policy will result in a more efficient allocation of the remaining IPv4 address space than individual allocations for NAT444 space, and while it would be nice if we were able to get IANA to allocate space for the entire world, there is sufficient justification among North American ISPs that it makes sense for ARIN to reserve the addresses.

As I remember it, the draft was vigorously discussed at IETF79 in Beijing and on the list for a while after that, but there wasn't even a call for WG adoption because there was so little consensus on moving it forward. if it had WG approval, it would have been reissued with the WG name in the title (it was being discussed in OPSAWG).  It died well before IANA exhaustion. The expiration date is only a function of when the draft was written, because all drafts expire after 6 months.

For clarity; this went to the IETF in two rounds, the first was in a draft that asked for a /8 - that's the one that has expired.
The second attempt asked for a /10
(draft-weil-shared-transition-space-request) and that draft actually gained working group approval but essentially ran out of time (IANA exhausted). It does not expire until May 15, 2011 but since there is no space left at the IANA, my understanding is that discussion has stopped.
