I'm not in support of this proposal. It doesn't address ARIN region concerns
that have prevented previous like-minded policies from succeeding. I'm
confused as to why the authors didn't try to influence a similar, existing,
global policy that accomplishes much of the same thing. prop-086-v003 has
made it to all regions. It was passed in the ARIN region and has some level
of support in other regions. The APNIC region rejected a previous version
and has had little discussion on a post discussion version that addressed
most of the APNIC region concerns.
Personally, I'm not sure that the IANA will ever see an address from any
legacy holder or RIR and we ought to abandon all of these proposals
forthwith as they are distracting all of us from worthwhile work.
Subsequently, I've withdrawn my support for prop-086-v003.

Summary of discussion to date
- The requirement for an RIR to put into the pool before it can
withdraw, was queried and subsequently removed in Version 2.
- Following a query, the word log was removed in Version 2, to
clarify that the reporting process for resources re-allocated under this
proposal would be in the form of a registry.
- There was concern that it would take at least one year for this
proposal to achieve consensus in all RIR regions.
- It was pointed out that this proposal does not address the issue
of transfers, "the primary reason that ARIN rejected the mandatory
return clause of prop-069 was this transfer issue and the need to uphold
the values expressed in RFC 2050 (namely needs-based resource allocation)."
