[sig-policy] Report on APNIC 27 Policy SIG decisions
Dear SIG members
Below is a summary report of the status of proposals following the
Policy SIG held during APNIC 27 today.
The following proposals were abandoned following a lack of community
support:
prop-060: Change in the criteria for the recognition of NIRs in
the APNIC region
prop-063: Reducing timeframe of IPv4 allocations from twelve to
six months
prop-070: Maximum IPv4 allocation size
The following proposals were withdrawn:
prop-067: A simple transfer proposal
prop-068: Inter-RIR transfer policy
The following proposals reached consensus:
prop-050: IPv4 address transfers (with modifications to be detailed
in a subsequent email to this list)
prop-069: Global policy proposal for the allocation of IPv4 blocks
to Regional Internet Registries
Next steps
----------
1. The SIG Chairs report on the status of proposals at the APNIC Member
Meeting (AMM).
2. Proposals that reach consensus at both the Policy SIG and the AMM
are then returned to the Policy SIG mailing list for an eight-week
comment period.
3. If no substantial objections are received during the final comment
period, the proposals are deemed to have reached consensus at each
stage of the policy development process. At this point, the SIG
Chairs forward the proposals to the APNIC Executive Council (EC) for
endorsement.
4. If the APNIC EC endorses the proposals, the APNIC Secretariat begins
work on implementation of the proposals. Implementation usually
takes a minimum of three months, but may take more depending on the
implementation complexity.
