Hi Vivek, What karl and me are trying to say is why APNIC allowing the sale/purchase of IPs ?
In the present scenario, it’s nearly impossible for small organisations to get the IPs (here IPs means v4) to start any service. And on the other hand, giants are buying the IPs and dominating the industry. What stopping APNIC to immediately stop this sale/purchase stuff. please don’t show me the policy path….. apnic has recently change one of its allocation policy without even informing the community. So APNIC can very well do this without even waiting for policy thing.
