Thanks to fate, I can think like technician, like manager and like commercial together :) Let's see it as from manager position. Our goals is 1) to make possibility FORCE reclaim IPs (now I don't even touch ASNs) and 2) give that IPs to other company. For clear delegation reclaimed IPs to other companies RIR should be sure this net is not using anywhere else. So our primary goal is to make a way to force stop using the net in the Internet. Currently there is no way to do that. To make it possible, we should implement the database, or certification system, or something like that and enforce ALL THE WORLD to use it. The funny thing that we can't enforce world to do it now. There is no such policies and methods of using existing force :) So only we can do - to have world want to use that system and actually to implement that system. It is 2-5 years after policy will be accepted, bases created and anything is ready to work. Second disadvantage is complete lose of current net structure. World should believe central registry and follow it. There is no more unity of free independent autonomous networks. There will be a "Megaswitch" that can switch off any net for example by political reasons. Sure it WILL be used for censorship and illegal "competition". Who will maintain that Megaswitch? How? Only AFTER we have working Megaswitch, we can [force] reclaim IPs. But it will be the Other Internet... Sascha Lenz wrote:
A policy can be implemented really quickly, just see some of this years policy proposals. But not with all this commercial thinking people on here.
