| Eliminating needs-based evaluation for Section 8.2, 8.3, and 8.4<br>
| transfers of IPv4 netblocks<br>
|<br>
| On 17 September 2015 the ARIN Advisory Council (AC) accepted<br>
| "ARIN-prop-223 Eliminating needs-based evaluation for Section 8.2, 8.3,<br>
| and 8.4 transfers of IPv4 netblocks" as a Draft Policy.<br>
|<br>
| Draft Policy ARIN-2015-9 is below and can be found at:<br>
| <a href="https://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/2015_9.html">https://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/2015_9.html</a><br>
<br>
Greetings,<br>
<br>
There has been some stimulating dialog about the merits of 2015-9. I'd like to ask that in addition to any overall support or lack thereof, you also review the policy language and comment specifically on the changes proposed:<br>
a) For those of you generally in support of this effort, are there any refinements to the changes made which you think will improve this should these policy changes be implemented?<br>
b) For those of you generally opposed to this effort, are there any adjustments to the policy changes which, if implemented, would gain your support?<br>
<br>
