[arin-ppml] Policy Experience Workgroup - 8.3/8.4 12-Month Waiting Rule Question

[Matt Erculiani]

There appears to be a lot more overlap than just that stanza. Does it make
sense to combine 8.3 and 8.4 into just 8.3 "Transfers between specified
recipients" then call out the differences between intra and inter RIR
policy in a new 8.3.1 and 8.3.2?

But to actually answer the question that was asked:

I think the 12 month cool down period is reasonable if you're transferring
out an equal or smaller IPv4 block that was just received. The desire to
transfer sooner could indicate commercial intent with the resources
themselves from the outset and/or the lack of a valid technical
justification for all of the resources being transferred initially.

I will say that receiving an IPv4 block and transferring out an ASN (or
vice versa) could be mutually exclusive. IDK if that actually applies.
