Re: [sig-policy] prop-103-v001: A Final IP Address Policy Proposal
I do not support this proposal.
There are many issues that still must be decided.
(fix last /8 policy, fix inter-RIR transfer, etc.)

> The APNIC community spends time and resources proposing, discussing,

> There is an industry of policy wannabes spending inordinate time and

> Should an emergency arise, where community consensus is needed, the EC
