The favoring of small members is another correct thing as well.<o:p></o:p></p><p>With regards opening a office in Africa to get "free" addresses fortunately the RIR doesn't allow inter-RIR transfers and according to what have been discussed in the list so far they are not willing to allow it anytime soon.<o:p></o:p></p><p>There is no sense to put new entrants to get space from 4.4 or 4.10 as they are for a different and reasonable propose and pushing them to market is exactly shaping policies to favor private business like yours which is not the function of a RIR and this community who develop these policies.<br>Things change over time and we have do adapt to new scenarios (the policies allowing transfers intra and inter RIR is a example), but we must never forget some principles that has always been base for correct IP space allocations.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Regards<br>Fernando<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>On 16/08/2019 10:43, Mike Burns wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'>Hi Fernando,</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'>Thanks for your input. </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'>I think you are completely wrong in your interpretation of how IPv4 addressing should be managed.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'>You cling to old processes and thoughts associated with the free pool era, which is gone.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'>Without the presence of the free pool, the market is the “necessary and fair” way to manage resources.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'>With both the presence of the free pool and the market, there are problems that manifested themselves in overt fraud.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'>This situation caused unprecedented events like the unilateral shutting down of the waiting list by the executive board, the virtual writing of policy by the Advisory council, the changing of waiting list rules mid-game, the rationale of justifying the need for a block and then maintaining that same need for an indeterminate time before allocation, the creation of another class of addresses in ARIN space (not easily distinguished), the favoring of small members over large members, the FUD injected into project developments, the incentives to lease space to maintain waiting-list need, etc.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'>We only have to look across the pond to see that any pool of “free” addresses will be plundered by those willing to skirt the rules for new entrants in RIPE or open an empty office in Africa in order to access “free” addresses.

Those that don't qualify under 4.10 can still get smaller IPv4 blocks on the transfer market readily, and the cost for blocks in the /24-/22 range is not prohibitive. Certainly an organization seeking a small IPv4 block for multi-homing or other purposes is better off spending a few thousand dollars to purchase a range than waiting a year on the waiting list to put their plans in motion.</span><o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'><br>Note that while RIPE does not have a reserve pool specifically for IPv6 transition, the expectation of their final /8 policy was to allow new entrants access to IPv4 to assist in this transition.
