I agree. IPv6 still needs some work. For one there's too much "scarcity" obsession left over from IPv4 Really need to focus on allowing people to get what they need up front without coming up with crazy policies which introduce new constructs into IPv6 (ie. reservations, ratios for how much you've allocated in those reservations etc). If the really big networks NEED lots of IPv6 space, then let them, as long as we don't obsess about it. Also need more global alignment of policies. If one "region" allows /48s direct to orgs without multihoming then everyone should. Seems silly otherwise. MMC On 11/07/2012, at 3:26 PM, Dean Pemberton wrote:
That may be true for v4 (although I'm far from convinced). But I'm not at all buying it for v6

Actually, I think that this proposal is more than just to incite thinking, it actually has merit. The v4 space is functionally all assigned. Many/Most of the existing policies are focused on events that are no longer relevent. new policies, if any, should ensure accurate recording of stewardship. It would make an ISP's life -MUCH- simpler.

So let me ask a simple question.
Do people think that there is a need to develop any more IP policies? Or are all the policies we have the moment sufficient for the future?

I think Randy's taking the wrong tactic with this.
Policy needs to be a series of no-rules cage fights or, maybe, something along the line of gladiator traditions in Roman time.
Then it could be televised, a profit made and APNIC run from that profit rather than charging for IP addresses and ASes.

Morning all,
Randy Bush (from IIJ in Japan) has just tabled a policy for discussion at the August APNIC members meeting. Essentially if passed this would see the APNIC policy development process disolved.
I'm interested in feedback that people on this list may have, and I'm happy to pass it along on the sig-policy list or in person at the meeting. As always, feel free to contribute to what I'm sure will be heated discussion on the APNIC sig-policy list. I'll try and summarise the happenings back here.
Regards, Dean
