Hi Jeremy, The draft on the table is a change to section 9 of the policy manual. It applies to qualification for _additional_ IP addresses. If you ask ARIN for _more_ IP addresses than you currently use, those addresses you acquired when you were 12 matter. Section 9 then talks about whether use of those old addresses elsewhere in the world qualifies as "in use" for the purpose of justifying the *NEW* addresses. Not justifying the old ones, justifying the *new* ones. If you're not asking for more addresses for the same registrant then section 9 is not applicable to your legacy addresses at all.
