[arin-ppml] ARIN-prop-131: Section 5.0 Legacy Addresses

I had the same thought and looked at 2011-1 before I suggested the
text.  The pending global transfer proposal text appears to be
registrant to registrant.  So, if one returns legacy space to ARIN
under prop 131, they aren't attempting to transfer it to an
organization in a foreign RIR.

I guess I see prop 131 as what to do in case 2009-3 doesn't go global.
 Yes, the ARIN BoT adopted it, but it's contigent on ratification by
ICANN.

Is 2011-1 the pending transfer proposal you are referring to?
