I remain opposed to this policy and voted against the recommendation
for that reason. I personally believe that removing slow start from
transfers is unneeded at this time, is potentially dangerous from an
abuse perspective, and is absolutely premature in any case. However, I
do agree that the AC decision is in line with the majority of the
community and support our decision for that reason.

>  ARIN-2011-12: Set Transfer Need to 24 months

I supported this proposal reluctantly. Ultimately, I believe that this
is the best choice for the community and is supported by the majority
of the community.

While at this time I am personally opposed to the changes it proposes,
I believe this proposal warrants further discussion by the community.

I did not see significant support for this change from the community,
I was unconvinced by the rational included, and the problem that this
proposal is meant to solve has not been illustrated to my satisfaction
- I agree with the AC decision to abandon.
