Re: [sig-policy] Timeline for implementing the transfer proposal
Hello Sig-policy,
I still maintain it is too early to implement address transfers and
that doing so earlier than absolutely necessary is irresponsible.
While organizations can still obtain address resources via the current
well established process, we shouldn't create demand and support for
transfers which could have significant effects to the general community.
That said, I agree it is important that a transfer policy is adopted
so that the procedures can established.
However I'd be interested to see if people support only activating the
policy when we are closer to exhaustion of the IANA free pool (for
example at the same time as the final /8 is activate)
This allows all the process and procedures to be prepared while we
wait for the policy to be activated when it is without question
required.
Interested in people's opinions ?

Hi Geoff,
I'd like to ask for all three of them related to the transfer.
prop-050, prop-067 and prop-068
Hope you can answer for the two of them that you admit :-)
Hi Izumi,
Both prop 50 and prop 68 were drafted so as to be implementable
immediately.
Given that they require the establishment of new procedures and
potentially some new registries to support the transfer log, I suspect
that "immediately" would imply some number of months to implement.

Geoff
