Isn’t APNIC’s role “Addressing the challenge of responsible Internet resource distribution in the Asia Pacific region”? With one of the challenges being aggregation? (This is stated in may places in APNIC’s doco)

This proposal WILL end up basically giving away address space to whoever asks for it. Izumi, you must recognise this is bad, goes against everything APNIC stands for, and should not proceed.

And please, don’t say “but the other RIRs...”. If they jumped off a bridge... :)
