Hi Jordi,
Have you done any analysis to check how big a problem it is in the
APNIC service region? for example check all (or may be a subset of)
the allocations and assignments by the APNIC along with their
allocated ASN(s) and see if those resources are originating from these
ASN(s).

Yes, I definitively agree with that: The most honorable thing will
be to return resources that you don’t use for your directly
connected customers.
However, not allowing that when the community accepted it long
time ago, would have been a failure, because many organizations
just look for their own interest instead of the global community one.
In the case of leasing is already not covered by policies, we just
want to make sure that it is sufficiently clear.

Hello everyone,
In my opinion, even Trading of IPs (leave apart the lease for
making dollars) in the name of transfers must be stopped.
If organisation doesn’t need IPs , then those must be returned
back so that smaller organisations can get it from the RIR.
Currently, only the one which have millions of dollars can think
of getting IPs. In today’s scenario, no one can start the Data
Centre, ISP business without investing millions in IPs. Even
education and research org doesn’t have an option to get IPs from RIR.
This is like horse trading and isn’t a good practice for the
community as a whole.

Dear Team,
As Mr. Satoru, mentioned there are changes, but if carefully
implemented in phased manner, unauthorised leasing can be stopped.
For example in first phase, leasing among countries can be
stopped, if the owner company doesn't provide any services
beyond its home country. For example if a company in India
doesn't have any operation in Singapore or Japan , can't lease
resources to those companies in Singapore or Japan. This can
be verified by taking business registration documents of both
lease and lessor.
Once this is done same may be granularized at RIR level, where
in country like India, leasing can be restricted to the
licensed service area for service provider within their
designated service area.
This may stop majority of issues, barring few exceptions.
Some more brainstorming is required for better understanding
and precise implementation.

Dear Colleagues,
I am Satoru Tsurumaki from Japan Open Policy Forum
Steering Team..
I would like to share key feedback in our community for
prop-148,
based on a meeting we organised on 29th Aug to discuss
these proposals.
Many participants support the intent of the proposal but
felt that
implementation would be challenging.
(comment details)
- It is undisputed that the current policy allows for the
distribution
of IP addresses according to the actual demand of one's own
organization or directly connected customers, and does
not allow for
the leasing of IP addresses.
- I think this proposal would be useful if the concept of
leasing is
accurately defined.
- Leasing IP addresses that damage the accuracy of whois
information
should not be allowed, but I find it difficult to implement.

Satoru Tsurumaki / JPOPF Steering Team
