Hi Wes,

So if I have addresses inside a NAT today, I want to move them outside
the NAT and I'm willing to cough up the money for a transfer, I should
be denied because the addresses at issue are currently used behind a
NAT?

I'm sure we can fix this language so that it does what you intend, but
that will take time and debate. So, let's take the time and get it
right. Let's get 2011-5 on the books as it stands and then let's
figure out a good way to rebalance the the justified need concept
around its existence.

Regards,
Bill Herrin
