thanks to Tore for pointing this out, but page 6 of:

> http://www.apnic.net/__data/assets/pdf_file/0011/80786/apnic-ec-minutes-20141126.pdf

contains the following:

> 21. Inter-RIR transfer policy discussion
>
> The EC considered the Inter-RIR transfer policy discussions (attached).
>
> The EC unanimously resolved to place a temporary moratorium on inter RIR
> transfer with RIPE NCC, pending discussions and confirmation with APNIC,
> ARIN and RIPE communities that such transfers will not change APNIC’s
> status as sharing reciprocal, compatible, needs-based policy with ARIN.
>
> Motion proposed by Paul Wilson, seconded by Akinori Maemura.

Could someone from APNIC, ARIN or both explain the background to this
decision?  I haven't seen any discussions in the RIPE community about this,
and without knowing the background it seems peculiar that APNIC feels it
necessary to consult ARIN about APNIC->RIPE NCC resource transfers.
