One thing I'm not sure about is this:
LIRs that receive a re-allocation from another LIR cannot re-allocate complete or partial blocks of the same address space to another LIR within 24 months of receiving the re-allocation.
Interesting. Since this policy seems to be saying that it will be legitimate for LIRs to trade addresse blocks, has anyone investigated whether or not restrictions, such as those above, would be considered illegal restraint of trade?
Ultimate acceptance of any policy rests with the RIPE NCC board, who would be consulting counsel on this one, I suspect. Since no one on this list is a lawyer, could we avoid uninformed legal speculation? Of course *if* there is a lawyer reading this list, feel free to give us the benefit of your opinions Nigel Nigel
