Gert, I want to apologize. Please accept my sincere apology for any appearance of impropriety or other process concerns created by the following email. With hindsight, I should not have sent the following email. In particular I think "-1" on the proposal was inappropriate, as I don't represent any resources within the RIPE Region. I ask you and the WG chairs to please disregard it. However, I stand behind my other email questioning Tore characterization of Sylvain's opposition to the proposal. In particular Tore's suggestion that Sylvain was simply opposing transfers in general and not the changes to transfers resulting from this proposal. I appreciate your response to that email, but I remain unconvinced by Tore's arguments in this regard. In the interest of full disclosure, I am a member of the ARIN Advisory Council, a volunteer position involved in the ARIN Policy Development Process. In my day job, I'm Senior Network Design Engineer at the University of Minnesota, and I'm the University's technical representative to many networking organizations and fora. Again, I apologize and will not be making any further comment on this proposal. Thank you. On 9/20/13 15:21 , David Farmer wrote:
+1 to every thing Sylvain said, and -1 to proposal.

Hi all,
Unfortunately we do not support this new proposal, because conservation still is a goal to us, as IPv4 public ressource keeps being vital for many structures.
Deregulation + commercial transfer make the ressources governed by sole market, which we do not agree with. We consider Ripe NCC should stay in its regulation role and not give public ressources away to the private sector and market.
