Couple of questions/comments...

>From 1.0

Shouldn't the scope be explicit as to what is/isn't included


>From 2.1

"Transfers can be on a permanent or non-permanent basis."

How is this going to be recorded and managed within the context of
reflecting it being a non-permanent transfer?

>From 2.2

"assigned by the RIPE NCC on a restricted basis (such as IPv4 or 16-bit ASNs)"

Rather than "such as" this needs to be a definitive list of what is
classed as a restricted resource

>From 3.1

Again a list of conditions or references to policies that impose
restrictions needed

>From 4.0

M&A process is mentioned, should there be other references to this?
Especially as M&A (as I understand it) allows 2.2 to be overridden

General

- As this is about transfers should this also cover returning
resources to ripe NCC so all types of transfers be included

- broadly support the unification of transfer policy into a single
document, just things bits are missing or muddy
