I am not in favor of "Any RIR's resource registrant may transfer IPv4 addresses to the resource<br>registrant of another RIR" as it is my belief that such a proposal would hype up the transfer market and has the possibility to split the RIRs into those who fit ARIN's needs based transfer policies and those who do not....<div>

Feel free to demonstrate otherwise. So far, I count two denying that<br>
and what appears to be significant opposition to the proposal at<br>
large. I don't see any value in engaging in any discussion arguing for<br>
or against any language around 2050, rather it would be more effective<br>
to find more appropriate language reconciling the issue to move the<br>
concept forward. Feel free to make a suggestion.<br>
