No fair fixing the single aggregate thing while you're at it.  ;-)

Agreed.   I suspect there is a way to preserve needs-basis on inter-RIR
transfers even in light of the differences in ARIN and APNIC's transfer
policies, but that is likely the topic for another thread...

Well, I think all the other regions have an equivalent to the RSA, but
agreed nonetheless.

I know I don't have to ask for yours.  ;-)
