Re: [address-policy-wg] opposition to 2015-04

Hi Sasha,

RIPE policy has, until recently, explicitly recognised that M&A (and what happens to resources due to those) is not in scope for the PDP. It is only since "last /8" that certain elements of the "community" have tried, by hook or by crook, to arrogate themselves the right to decide what happens to resources in the event of M&A.

It has always been in scope, it just hasn't been very interesting to write policy about. Until now when people are using it as a way to circumvent policy. Cheers, Sander
