Call for comments: Resolution to abandon prop-069: Global policy
proposal for the allocation of IPv4 blocks to Regional Internet
Registries
_______________________________________________________________________
Dear Colleagues
This is a reminder about the final call for comments to abandon Prop-069
as a Global Policy candidate.
As the result of a consensus decision at the APNIC 32 Policy SIG
meeting, it was resolved that:
The membership of the APNIC Policy SIG recognizes that Prop-069 -
Global policy proposal for the allocation of IPv4 blocks to
Regional Internet Registries has been been superseded by Prop-097
and that Prop-069 should be abandoned.
Background
----------
This proposal reached consensus at APNIC 27 and subsequently completed
the APNIC Policy Development Process on Thursday, 21 May 2009.
The Address Supporting Organization Address Council abandoned prop-069
as a global policy proposal as the proposal failed to reach consensus in
all RIRs.
The APNIC Policy SIG Chairs propose that following the 8-week comment
period, the SIG request the APNIC Executive Council to dis-endorse
prop-069, that action item pol-27-02 be closed, and that prop-069 be
listed as "Abandoned".
The comment period will end Monday, 31 October 2011.
Proposal details
----------------
This is a global policy proposal governing the allocation of reclaimed
IPv4 address space from the IANA to the Regional Internet Registries
(RIRs) after the IANA's existing free pool of unallocated IPv4
addresses space is depleted.
Proposal details, including the full text of the proposal, history, and
links to mailing list discussions are available at:
