[arin-ppml] About needs basis in 8.3 transfers

[Steven Ryerse]

Yes some blocks have been returned and that is a good thing.  My question for your first point then is why are so many transfers (in this region) of resources happening outside of ARIN and the “Transfers to Specified Recipients” policy (or other applicable ARIN policies)?  After all I think we would get a near unanimous consensus that when the database doesn’t get updated after a transfer it is a negative thing?  So it is not desirable for transfers to take place outside of ARIN but it keeps happening anyway.  Why?

Yes I agree it should have happened years ago and I agree that an outside marketplace already exists, but it isn't too late for ARIN to engage and embrace the new marketplace.

They have embraced it, fully:

 I certainly do understand why those large Legacy holders would just watch and wait to see what happened in the marketplace once all of the RIRs run out of resources. It is in their interest to do so.

but there have been cases of good net-citizenship where entities have returned large blocks (even entire /8's) in recent years.

this discussion should have happened 10 years ago. Now, it's too late.

Everyone knows that IP addresses are worth a buck or two.. The marketplace exists and at least 3 RIRs acknowledge it and their communities have built policies for it. Would you give them up if you would be having a (large) number of unused IPs; IPs that may bring your organization the money needed to invest in new equipment and skills and migrate to IPv6 :)
