Going forward, organizations requiring a /15 or less per year would likely just use the simplified </div><div>doubling approach (2016-3) , as such this policy proposal would not be helpful </div><div>(and current policy not a problem).</div></div><div><br></div><div>2. This problem would only impact organizations that are large enough to have their own relationship with </div><div>ARIN. The organization's internal struggle with creating a justification that they can stand behind, </div><div>and meet ARIN requirements would generally be kept internal to such an organization. I expect</div><div>these organizations would have already secured pre-approval prior to engaging an outside organization</div><div>to complete a transfer.</div><div><br></div><div>3. This problem has only emerged since the implementation of ARIN-2016-6 which occurred on </div><div>02/21/2017. Transfers prior to this date could have been justified under slow start in section 4.</div><div><br></div><div>- How many of the 400+ transfers has the approval been completed post 02/21/2017? </div><div><br></div><div>- Of those, how many transfer are larger than a /16? <br></div><div> (or the transfer in question brings the org to over a /15 worth of transfers in the previous</div><div> 1 year rolling window)</div><div><br></div><div>- Of those, how many have you consulted on putting together the justification for transfer approval?</div><div><br></div><div>So yes, I am not surprised that in your 400+ transfers you have not seen this as an issue. </div><div><br></div><div>Thant doesn't mean it is not an issue. </div><div><br></div><div>While I expect that well over 90% will make use of either NRPM 8.5.4 or 2016-3 </div><div>(maybe even as Owen suggests 2016-3 "obviates the need for [2017-1] by and large."),</div><div>there are still a small number of requests that are for larger than a /15 per year.</div><div><br></div><div>To not address that small amount of requests suggests we as a community do not</div><div>care about their need.</div><div><br></div><div>Prior to 02/21/2017 those requests had the option to base their two year need solely</div><div>on the recent past consumption rate. These requests will now be forced to use a </div><div>purely future looking projection, with no clear guidance on what justification ARIN </div><div>will accept, or how much additional information, back and forth discussion, and time</div><div>will be required, nor the ability to predict the likelihood that a request should or should</div><div>not be approved.</div><div><br></div><div>Google is a data driven company. </div><div> </div><div>In a data driven company it may be easier to simply base a future looking growth on a</div><div>real measure of current consumption rate, knowing that this will necessarily result in a</div><div>short fall because you are only requesting IP addressed based on the current rate, and</div><div>not the current growth rate. </div><div><br></div><div>In the absence of real data, people will often guess. Some people guess better, some </div><div>worse. Some guesses are based on intricate algorithms, real data, and Fermi maths, </div><div>others are just what feel right. Either type can be multiple orders of magnitude off, or </div><div>in the right ballpark.</div><div><br></div><div>Do we really want to encourage data driven companies who previously requested less IP</div><div>space then they needed because their requests have always been based on a real </div><div>measure of consumption, and not addressing speculative growth, to instead require them</div><div>to guess about the future? Especially noting that if they guess too low, the penalty is</div><div>running out of IPs, and if they guess to high there is no penalty (except if they buy a </div><div>surplus and end up with IPs that were bought which go unused)? </div><div><br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US"><div class="gmail-m_-7610612583602955175WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif">Buyers are far more concerned with ensuring supply and what it will cost.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif">I don’t see the value in more Section 8 clutter.</span></p></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I would encourage you to no think of this as more clutter in section 8, but rather addressing </div><div>a justification that was previously support under section 4, and now has to be mirrored into</div><div>section 8 to continue to support the legitimacy of this type of a request in order to address</div><div>over-pruning. </div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US"><div class="gmail-m_-7610612583602955175WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif">Anybody in the world with any sort of concern about demonstrating need by whatever arcane formula can avail themselves of the needs-free policy in RIPE.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif">Open an account there, buy what you need, use them anywhere.
