[arin-ppml] ARIN-prop-137 Global Policy for post exhaustion IPv4 allocation mechanisms by the IANA

[Jeffrey Lyon]

George,

I'm thinking in terms of future growth. Some small region might have
little need for IP space of any type and then have out of control
demand a few months down the line. Where ARIN region users might
address this problem with IPv6, folks in developing regions might
choose to use older or discarded gear and rely on IPv4.

Best regards, Jeff
