I guess we'll get to discuss those issues during the policy sig today.

>> 1. Problem statement
>> -----------------------------
>>
>>     The current ASN assignment policy states two eligibility criteria

>>     ASN. The policy seems to imply that both requirements i.e.
>>     multi-homing and clearly defined single routing policy must be met
>>     simultaneously, this has created much confusion in interpreting the
>>     policy.
>>
>>     As a result organizations have either provided incorrect information
>>     to get the ASN or barred themselves from applying where they still
>>     have a valid justification for obtaining an ASN.
>>
>>
>> 2. Objective of policy change
>> --------------------------------------
>>
>>     In order to make the policy guidelines simpler we are proposing to
>>     modify the text describing the eligibility criteria for ASN
>>     assignment by providing alternate criteria to obtaining an ASN.
>>
>>
>> 3. Situation in other regions
>> ------------------------------------
>>
>> ARIN:
>>     It is not mandatory but optional to be multi-homed in order get ASN
>>
>> RIPE:
>>     Policy to remove multi-homing requirement is currently in discussion
>>     and the current phase ends 12 February 2015 (awaiting Chair
>>     decision)
>>
>>     Policy - https://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2014-03
>>
>> LACNIC:
>>     Only inter-connect is mandatory not multi-homing
>>
>> AFRINIC:
>>     It is mandatory to be multi-homed in order to get ASN.
>>
>>
>> 4. Proposed policy solution
>> -----------------------------------
>>
>>     An organization is eligible for an ASN assignment if:
>>
>>      - they are currently multi-homed OR
>>
>>      - meet one of the other criteria in the guidelines managed by the
>>        APNIC Secretariat
>>
>>
>> 5. Advantages / Disadvantages
>> -----------------------------------------
>>
>> Advantages:
>>
>>     By adding the additional criteria of Guidelines managed by APNIC
>>     Secretariat, this would enable the Secretariat to make decisions
>>     based on common or rare use cases, but that may still be a valid
>>     request.
>>
>> Disadvantages:
>>
>>     It may be perceived that this policy would enable members to obtain
>>     ASN’s more easily, and in return cause faster consumption of ASN’s
>>     in the region.  Given the relative ease of obtaining an ASN with

>>     any effect.
