I'm worried by the wooliness of phrases such as

"The Originating LIR and the IPv4 address space transferred are in 
compliance with the Originating Policy"

I really don't know what this means and I see a world of pain unless 
it's clarified. What does "in compliance with" actually mean in this 
context?
