[arin-ppml] quantitative study of IPv4 address market

[Steven Ryerse]

For all of the reasons I've stated in the past I believe it is harmful.  I agree with Owen here.

The goal of ARIN address policy is to place addresses in service where they are needed so long as that is possible.

This is the overarching goal of both the allocation policy _AND_ the transfer policy.

Keeping addresses in inventory when they are needed in implementations is every bit as counterproductive to that goal as would be eliminating the justified need requirement from allocation or transfer policy.

If policy is prematurely driving people to the transfer market because of the huge discrepancy in terms we have created with recent policy changes, then, it is evidence that that discrepancy is harmful.
