Hello working group, We have reached the end of the last-call period for 2015-01 (Alignment of Transfer Requirements for IPv4 Allocations). After analysing the messages on the mailing list that were posted about 2015-01 after the last-call was announced I have come to the conclusion that the consensus declared at the end of the review phase still stands. I therefore declare final consensus on this policy proposal and ask the RIPE NCC to turn it into active policy and implement it. My decision is based on the following: Shahin Gharghi, Petr Umelov and Yuri@Ip4market argued that this proposal doesn't solve all problems. This has already been discussed and acknowledged during the review phase. No policy proposal will ever solve everything all at once. People wanting additional changes are encouraged to submit new policy proposals to address any remaining issues. Petr Umelov was under the impression that RIPE NCC receives a fixed size IPv4 block from IANA every 6 months, which is not correct as pointed out by Leo Vegoda. Petr Umelov and Vladimir Andreev also discussed the statistics on transfers and whether the trend justifies changing policy. Arguments that RIPE NCC has enough address space and a policy change would therefore not be necessary have already been discussed in the review phase and are considered addressed. Vladimir Andreev suggested writing a summary of the discussions so I hope he reads this email. Arash Naderpour argued that with 2015-01 existing LIRs cannot request their last /22 and then immediately transfer it. This has been discussed before: it is one of the actual goals of this policy: to stop LIRs from requesting a /22 just to transfer it. Sincerely, Sander Steffann APWG co-chair
