[address-policy-wg] what to do about 2009-01?

Hi,


>> Michael, I was hoping we could reduce the number of options to consider for 2009-01, not add to them. Oh well...
>>
>> So how about just having these two possibilities:
>>
>> 1) Withdraw 2009-01. It's dead. Heroic measures to revive it and achieve a global policy are not going to have a happy outcome. So accept that situation and give up.
>>
>> 2) Continue with 2009-01 with a view to aligning things with the other RIRs except ARIN. Perhaps that might persuade ARIN to reconsider. It's also good PR because we're committing to making recovered space available for the greater good, even if that recovered space will probably just exist as an abstract concept. Does anyone here have a spare /8 to hand over?

> I personally would favor option 2, at least have it ready and waiting just in case ARIN is going to change their mind on it.

ok i think i don't want to go too deep into the politics of that 
proposal and having read some comments on it - again, i think
"option 2" is the least stupid one to go with, so i would support this 
one now.

Having said that - i still want to mention that i PERSONALLY (not 
professionally!) still don't see why we need any of those 
last-minute-IPv4-policy-changes at all. Just let it [IPv4] die already.
(Again, please no discussions on this here, it's not my professional 
opinion anyways)
