Looks like IETF wants the global BOGONs to be attested by IANA rather than by an RIR from what you quoted.Yes, for resources not allocated by IANA or marked as Reserved But IANA has nothing to do with resources allocated to RIRs already.
Any reason APNIC feels the need to usurp that process?
Accordingly to IANA 103/8 was allocated to APNIC and now they don't have unallocated IPv4 address space.
103/8 APNIC 2011-02 whois.apnic.net https://rdap.apnic.net/ ALLOCATED The policy is addressing the unallocated address space within APNICIf this policy is only speaking to /8 IPv4 blocks & IPv6 blocks which are administered by APNIC, it should be noted that because of inter-RIR transfers of IPv4 addresses between regions RIRs other than APNIC are now administering sub-portions of the larger IANA allocated blocks. There are portions of a /8 for example which are now delegated to other RIRs for registrations in those regions. Should it be assumed that those sub-portions administered by RIRs now are considered allocated (and not bogons) for purposes of this policy?
