Indeed. Mergers & acquisitions are real-world business events that APWG
cannot affect. I see a big nut to crack on how to address abuse via
"illegitimate" M&A, including figuring out what is and what is not
"illegitimate" and "abuse".

As always, I believe address pricing will be most straight-forward way
to manage this for remaining RIPE region v4 pools.
