ARIN has publicly stated that Microsoft had to follow the policy that
requires needs justification, just as any other transfer recipient would
have to do.  AFAIK (and I'm only aware of what's been publicly posted here
to PPML and at public policy meetings) the only thing non-standard about
the Nortel-Microsoft transfer was that Microsoft signed the LRSA instead of
the RSA.  And since the only real remaining difference between the two is
the fee schedule, that is definitely not a policy matter.
