I concur with your assessment, I believe policy text was designed
for IANA to make its first allocation immediately upon one RIR
dropping below the /9 inventory level.<br>

Louie,<br>
<br>
As you chair the ASO AC, I am seeking your guidance
on the<br>
interpretation of the Global Policy for Post
Exhaustion IPv4 Allocation<br>
Mechanisms by the IANA, which was ratified in May
2012.<br>
<br>
The global policy defines states that "Allocations
from the IANA may<br>
begin once the pool is declared active." It is not
clear whether this<br>
means that allocation from the Recovered IPv4 Pool
should be made<br>
straight away or whether they should happen at the
start of the next<br>
"IPv4 allocation period," the "6-month period
following <span><span>1 March</span></span> or 1<br>
September."<br>
<br>
We hope you can advise us on the intended meaning of
this sentence, so<br>
that we can implement the policy appropriately.<br>
<br>
We look forward to receiving your response on this
question of<br>
interpretation of the Global Policy for Post
Exhaustion IPv4 Allocation<br>
Mechanisms by the IANA.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
