[address-policy-wg] 2007-08 New Policy Proposal (Enabling Methods for Reallocation of IPv4 Resources)

Thanks to fate, I can think like technician, like manager and like
commercial together :)

Let's see it as from manager position.

Our goals is 1) to make possibility FORCE reclaim IPs (now I don't even
touch ASNs) and 2) give that IPs to other company.

For clear delegation reclaimed IPs to other companies RIR should be sure
this net is not using anywhere else. So our primary goal is to make a
way to force stop using the net in the Internet.

Currently there is no way to do that.

To make it possible, we should implement the database, or certification
system, or something like that and enforce ALL THE WORLD to use it. The
funny thing that we can't enforce world to do it now. There is no such
policies and methods of using existing force :) So only we can do - to
have world want to use that system and actually to implement that
system. It is 2-5 years after policy will be accepted, bases created and
anything is ready to work.

Second disadvantage is complete lose of current net structure. World
should believe central registry and follow it. There is no more unity of
free independent autonomous networks. There will be a "Megaswitch" that
can switch off any net for example by political reasons. Sure it WILL be
used for censorship and illegal "competition". Who will maintain that
Megaswitch? How?

Only AFTER we have working Megaswitch, we can [force] reclaim IPs. But
it will be the Other Internet...
