Why can’t they get previously-allocated IPv6 Provider Independent space?

If they don’t have address space to advertise, what, exactly, are they going to 
use the AS Number for in the mean time?

I’m not opposed to deleting the phrase, but I am truly curious if you have an 
actual use case where removing it is harmful.

Ideally, no.

This part still doesn’t make sense to me. The phrase mentioned does not specify 
IPv4, yet you seem to be assuming that is a requirement. Am I missing something?

Previously doesn’t necessarily mean separation by days. I think that the RIR 
staff can be trusted to accept applications contemporaneously and issue the 
addresses first, followed by he ASN, thus meeting the requirement in the policy.

If you have a better way to address the issue they are bringing up, then 
propose that and let’s discuss it as a community.

As I understand their message, the concern is issuing ASNs that have no actual 
use/need. I don’t think anyone is trying to put up artificial barriers to 
entry, but there is a desire to ensure that ASN acquisition doesn’t become some 
form of network fashion statement.

I seem to recall Skeeve put forth a proposal to eliminate the multihoming 
requirement some years back because it was becoming problematic in a number of 
situations where peering was desirable, but multihoming couldn’t necessarily be 
achieved (or at least had a longer than permitted time frame).

At the time, I had suggested the use of “Multihomed or otherwise demonstrate a 
unique routing policy.” which actually pretty well covers any situation in 
which you would need an ASN.

Having trouble parsing this sentence. If restriction of the resources occurs, 
it will be through policy, so I’m not sure what APNIC would need to report back 
to the community.

People can commit fraud in a number of ways in a variety of circumstances. I 
don’t think that the answer in most situations is to permit all the benefits by 
removing the rules to make it impossible to commit fraud (or at least 
pointless). It’s sort of like saying “Everyone on this freeway is always doing 
200Kph, therefore we should raise the speed limit to 200Kph.” If someone 
obtains resources from a falsified application, then they are committing fraud 
and I’m sure the APNIC legal team is quite capable of addressing that situation 
should sufficient evidence come to light.
