All,
I¹m having an offline discussion with Aftab, basically the issue he¹s
trying to address is that new ISPs in small countries/cities may not meet
the day 1 requirements for an ASN, but however should be eligible since
they will require an ASN to peer/multihome at some point in the future
(which I do agree)
Currently they all have to "commit fraud² in order to get an ASN, and I
guess some religion takes that more seriously than others.
Would we the proposal be acceptable if we reworded the proposal to say
something on the lines of
³Eligible LIRs with APNIC Assigned Portable addresses are also eligible
for as ASN²?
This would cover the use case without opening the floodgates.
Thoughts?

If someone lies on their a countries visa application about a previous
conviction for example, thats not justification for the entire country
to just give up issuing visas.
It sounds like you are accusing the hostmasters of doing an inadequate
job of checking policy compliance of member applications for
resources. Perhaps this is something that you'd like to take up with
them directly rather than proposing that we remove all the rules in
the existing policies.

Thanks Guangliang for the update,
According to the current APNIC ASN policy document, the definition of
multihomed is as below.
http://www.apnic.net/policy/asn-policy#3.4
3.4 Multihomed
A multi-homed AS is one which is connected to more than one other AS.
An
AS also qualifies as multihomed if it is connected to a public Internet
Exchange Point.
In the ASN request form, you will be asked to provide the estimate ASN
implementation date, two peer AS numbers and their contact details. It
is
also acceptable if your network only connect to an IXP.
So what if I only have one upstream provider and doesn't have a Public
IX in
place? What If I just whois any member from my country and provide AS
numbers and contact details publicly available? Do you check back after
3
months that the AS you provided to the applicant is actually peering
with
the ones they mentioned in the application? Do you send email
notification
to those contacts provided in the application that XYZ has mentioned
your AS
to be peer with in future?
