<DIV><SPAN class=847325701-14112008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>It was
my understanding that ARIN's official position was that all address space

<DIV><SPAN class=847325701-14112008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<DIV><SPAN class=847325701-14112008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>should
be evidence of validity. Thus, this embryonic proposal really only
concerns the</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=847325701-14112008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>In my
view this is a fundamental chance to the status of the so-called Legacy IP

<DIV><SPAN class=847325701-14112008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I feel
that by labeling this NRPM the way you are doing, you are attempting to
sidestep</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=847325701-14112008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>the
issue of Legacy Holders currently having special dispensation at

<DIV><SPAN class=847325701-14112008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>that

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=014060501-14112008>Hello- This
is a second run of the email Jason and I sent out during the last
ARIN meeting. We wanted to send out a possible policy route that
ARIN could do opposed to using any form of an Emergency Transfer
Market. We need to see input/feedback on ppml for this.
Specifically if this is an avenue you would or would not want to see ARIN take
in place of a Transfer Policy/Market. If we don't get feedback on
ppml we will dump this idea. If we do get feedback in a manor
that shows interest then Jason and I will officially submit this policy
proposal and then work with the community on revising any aspects that aren't
completely appealing or decisively good for the
community. Thank you Marla Azinger
and Jason Schiller</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
