[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2018-1: Allow Inter-regional ASN Transfers

[Owen DeLong]

IMHO, yes.

For A), I’m not sure I see the need to support these transactions. We don’t support them for IPv6 (nor do I think we want to).
Sales of IPv4 addresses were a stop-gap to deal with a situation of scarcity, free pool exhaustion, and getting by until v6
is widely enough deployed. Hopefully they will eventually go away and we can return to more traditional forms of resource management.

For B), I’m still not convinced. They can’t move their IPv6 resources (nor do I think we want to support doing so). The ability to move their IPv4 resources is largely an artifact of the same scarcity/free pool exhaustion described above. However, my objections to solving this particular problem are a bit less than my objections to solving problem A).
