definitely
for me the following are open issues for me
-1 how it will affect inter region transfers - if this is important to the
community
-2 how will it affect reclamation of address space by RIRs - and is this
important
-3 how wil it affet the critics of the RIRs

1 - presently it will not be simple to establish an inter-RIR transfer
policy with Arin. Personally - based on previous discussion at Ripe meeting
and other places - I do not think the Arin communicty will change opinion
on this, at least until they run out.
This could be an issue as the "hidden reserves" of "legacy" assignments are
in the Arin region.

2 - I think reclamation by the RIPE NCC will decay over time.

3 - the traders will be happy
- he ITUs and critical governments will probably make more noice. how much
of an issue is this to us?

I liked the proposal initialy - but I do not buy the initial argument that
since we have run out, conservation is not important.
Since we have run out of unused addresses conservation is in many
ways  more important - unless we belive v6 can take over.

Maybe this proposal will increase the number of transfers for money - thus
putting more focus on conservation (all businesses tend to focus on
conserving cash)

It is not clear to me that theese aspects are well undrestood by the
majority, but ai might be wrong.
