[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2015-2: Modify 8.4 (Inter-RIR Transfers to Specified Recipients)

[David Huberman]

Bill, 

I don't understand your position.

There's no free pool. All space comes from the market.

A small actor pays money to get her necessary space from the market.
A large actor pays money to get her necessary space from the market.

How does the large actor moving space they hold from ARIN to CNNIC disadvantage the small actor?

David
