[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2015-9: Eliminating needs-based evaluation for Section 8.2, 8.3, and 8.4 transfers of IPv4 netblocks

[Richard J. Letts]

b) 
There is no definitive outcome from the policy change, which makes me feel that it's not worth changing -- the problem statement argument is weak at best.

It is potentially enabling organizations with more money than need gain more resources, potentially at the expense of non-profit and educational organizations who might not be able to raise cash for additional IPv4 space [or equipment to support a transition to IPv6]. Changing policy just to (potentially) improve the accuracy of a database seems not worth the (potential) risk.

Greetings,

There has been some stimulating dialog about the merits of 2015-9.  I'd like to ask that in addition to any overall support or lack thereof, you also review the policy language and comment specifically on the changes proposed:
a) For those of you generally in support of this effort, are there any refinements to the changes made which you think will improve this should these policy changes be implemented?
b) For those of you generally opposed to this effort, are there any adjustments to the policy changes which, if implemented, would gain your support?
