Hi Masato, I was really hoping that someone from ARIN will respond to either my e-mail or yours. Anyway, while we are waiting for them to respond, I would like to notify the community on the latest developments in the RIPE region. As mentioned in my previous message, 2012-02 has been withdrawn and Sandra Brown has sent a new policy proposal to the RIPE community, 2014-05. This policy proposal enables Inter-RIR transfers between the RIPE region and the other regions with active Inter-RIR transfer policies (ARIN and APNIC for now). I already talked to Sandra during the previous RIPE Meeting and discussed the possible ways forward for what is now known as 2014-05. While Sandra is supposed to be our competition :-) I would nevertheless like to acknowledge the great work she has done for 2014-05 and would like to invite her to (maybe) send the same or a very similar policy proposal in the APNIC region as well. If she does not have time for it, I would like to come up with a similar proposal in the APNIC region to be discussed before and during the meeting in Brisbane. Basically, her proposal is asking the RIPE NCC to create an operational procedure and work with the other RIRs to allow Inter-RIR transfers. (if incoming transfers to the RIPE region from ARIN/APNIC will require need based justification, the RIPE NCC will request it's member/LIR to provide the justification). As far as I have seen and heard from various people in this community, DN for post-exhaustion has already been removed once and only added because ARIN had it in their policy. If we work on a new policy proposal, maybe we can remove DN for everything else but ARIN incoming IPs (for as long as ARIN will keep DN in their policy) and still be compatible with RIPE and ARIN policies regarding Inter-RIR transfers. Kind regards, Elvis On 28/05/14 09:01, Masato Yamanishi
