Bob - Very well said - also, while it is true that IPv4 address allocation and assignment policy may become less relevant over time, it is not at all clear that will be the case with other policies, such as the IPv4 transfer policy. In any case, if you have views on how address space in the region should be administered, please participate in one or more of: - The ARIN ppml mailing list - The ARIN Public Policy Meeting (in-person or remote) - The ARIN Public Policy Consultations held at each NANOG We have nearly a dozen proposed policy changes being considered at the present time, and the time to express support or concern is _now_ (as opposed to after these policies changes have been approved, implemented and are in use.)
