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

[Steven Ryerse]

I think Mathew's comment is correct and I think your concerns about the market being cornered are unfounded as the real life experience shows the markets have not been cornered in other regions.  IPv6 makes trying to corner the IPv4 market a huge risk.

Doesn't the rollout of IPv6 make this impossible?
