Dear SIG members

Below is a summary of discussions on the proposal to date. We encourage
you to continue discussions on the mailing list before Thursday's Policy
SIG.

Regards,

Randy and Jian


Proposal summary
----------------

This is a global policy proposal governing the allocation of reclaimed
IPv4 address space from IANA to the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs)
after IANA's existing free pool of unallocated IPv4 address space is
depleted.

This proposal is being submitted in all RIR regions with a view to it
becoming a global policy.

  LIR and NIR returns of space.
