[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2022-9: Leasing Not Intended

Tue Sep 13 08:44:08 EDT 2022

Sorry to harp on this, but procedurally, for your reference below.

https://www.arin.net/vault/announcements/2009/20090622.html
https://www.arin.net/vault/about_us/ac/ac2011_0128.html

You can search ["globally coordinated policy" ARIN ] in your favorite
search tool and find many references over the years regarding "globally
coordinated" policy, policy which may fit for all RIR's but isn't a
suitable action the IANA can apply to RIR's.

You said this:

"In other RIRs, the leasing of addresses is not authorized either and since
it is not explicit in their policy manuals either, this proposal will be
presented as well."

Which still isn't clear on what your intention is. If you intend to submit
this same policy to all five RIR regions its all good.

Thanks,
