    <p>I don't understand your way to oppose this proposal. You want to
      oppose it based a small subset of 'situation in other regions'
      text ? That your only point to oppose this proposal ?<br>
      The text clearly says the leasing of addresses is not authorized
      explicitly in the policy manuals and in most RIRs it has been
      already confirmed this is not allowed in most RIRs (exactly as it
      should be). In RIPE that you are picking in order to try oppose
      this proposal it mentions specifically that this cannot be used as
      a justification of need and it is obvious you cannot go to RIPE,
      ask for addresses and justify that you will use them to lease to
      someone else, pretending to be a sub-RIR. It is just simple.</p>
    <p>In ARIN this proposal will make it very clear not only for
      justification of need which is already forbidden but also later on
      for usage and that is the right thing to do in order to avoid more
      unfairness with the whole community in times of IPv4 exhaustion.<br>
      What is the logic for not being able to justify the need based on
      leasing but be allowed to used for them for leasing later on ?<br>
    </p>
    <p>The point here is quiet simple and most people are able to
      understand: if you have a need to keep IP resources as a resource
      holder for justified need proposes you are fine to keep the
      addresses indefinitely, if not your should either transfer them to
      whoever has real need or return them back to ARIN so them can be
      directly assigned by ARIN to any member who really needs them and
      have no intermediaries in the middle pretending to be a RIR and
      bringing real security issues to the whole Internet.</p>

              <p>Hello<br>
              </p>
              <p>There is no such error in the proposal.<br>
                This has been checked as being the interpretation staff
                gives to the current policy in most RIRs. APNIC is just
                an example that have confirmed it publicly a couples of
                days ago. <br>
                You may not find all the very specific words you may
                wish for in the text, but it is not much difficult for
                them to have such interpretation given the resources
                must follow a proper justification of what they will be
                used for and that can never be that you will use them
                for leasing (rent of lend). ARIN also already confirmed
                in this very same list they don't accept it as a
                justification.<br>
              </p>
              <p>There is no much around the term leasing. If an
                organization who don't provide any connectivity services
                to another simply rent or lend IP space, with or without
                a cost associated that is something that must not be
                since they no longer have a justification to keep that
                IP space and instead should either transfer it to those
                who really justify or return to ARIN.<br>
