[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2015-11: Remove transfer language which only applied pre-exhaustion of IPv4 pool

[Azinger, Marla]

For clarity sake.   If this is removed, does that mean it's never added back in should ARIN actually get V4 space back in the free pool?

Either way I support removing this policy.  I think it shouldn't have existed to begin with.  It was not written well enough and unintentionally inhibited reasonable business practices.

Regards
Marla Azinger

Draft Policy ARIN-2015-11
Remove transfer language which only applied pre-exhaustion of IPv4 pool

Date: 23 September 2015

Problem Statement:

The current policies in NRPM sections 8.3, and 8.4 include language which is in effect "until exhaustion." As ARIN is no longer able to fulfil IPv4 requests (per 01 July 2015 press release https://www.arin.net/about_us/media/releases/20150701.html), exhaustion has effectively occurred. This proposal serves to remove the outdated language from the NRPM.

Policy statement:

Remove sections of the NRPM which were only affective until IPv4 pool exhaustion occurred, as follows:

Section 8.3 Transfers between Specified Recipients within the ARIN Region:
- Remove entirely the second bullet which reads "The source entity will be ineligible to receive any further IPv4 address allocations or assignments from ARIN for a period of 12 months after a transfer approval, or until the exhaustion of ARIN's IPv4 space, whichever occurs first."

Section 8.4 Inter-RIR Transfers to Specified Recipients:
- Remove entirely the third bullet which reads "Source entities within the ARIN region will not be eligible to receive any further IPv4 address allocations or assignments from ARIN for a period of 12 months after a transfer approval, or until the exhaustion of ARIN's IPv4 space, whichever occurs first."

Comments:
Timetable for implementation: Immediate
