Changes to APNIC IPv4 transfer policy
________________________________________________________________________
APNIC account holders wishing to be the recipient of IPv4 transfers
must now justify their need for the resources as a result of a policy
change taking effect from today, Monday, 21 November 2011.
To streamline the process, those seeking to be the recipient of IPv4
transfers may apply for pre-approval by demonstrating their need before
locating a source for the address space.
