ARIN-based network operators who are responsible for multi-continent IP
networks need to be able to move ARIN-registered numbers from ARIN to
LACNIC and AFRINIC for our datacenters in those regions. This need is to
allow us to achieve legal compliance and network engineering goals.
This draft policy meets that need, has safeguards against imbalance, and
is respectful of the wishes of two RIR communities. Quoting David Farmer:
"In the long-run I totally believe LACNIC and AFRINIC should approve
reciprocal transfer policies. However, we need to give them room to decide
this for themselves, it is arrogant and inconsiderate of the facts for us
to dictate a reciprocal transfer policy to them. If they feel they need
to start with a one-way transfer policy, there is logic to such a
strategy, and the current facts seem to justify at least some caution on
their part."
