[arin-ppml] Policy Proposal -- Normalize Free pool and Transfer justification periods

[Kevin Blumberg]

William,

What I am seeing is people are not going to the free pool and instead optimizing the space they currently have
well beyond the 80 percent justification. A 3 month allotment while good on paper has had a negative effect
to the region. I would be in support of any proposal that removes the 3 months as I see it as actually harming
more than helping. We need certainty with the few remaining allocations from the free pool and we need to bring
our region in line with the draw rate of other RIR free pools to improve IPv6 adoption. 

My 2 cents. 

Kevin Blumberg

ARIN having a free pool while APNIC does not places political pressure
on ARIN to share. This in turn makes policy decisions about things
like inter-region transfers more difficult.

IMHO, that's a lousy reason to encourage the exhaustion of the ARIN
free pool. But, it is a reason.
