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)."
