[address-policy-wg] question about IPv4 legacy and transfers - should we convert legacy to non-legacy with transfers?

Hi Gert,

Just to be clear: I didn't change this in any RIR.

I've proposed Inter-RIR transfers in LACNIC and AFRINIC, following their existing intra-RIR policies, which already had this legacy to non-legacy with the transfer, so I just kept it.

I still think it is unfair to have a legacy status, and for me this is a good reason. As Jim said, it is about diversity, in this case of opinions.

I'm going to investigate the reasons to have this in the other RIRs and come back to the list.

Regards,
Jordi

    If this is the main argument ("I changed this in all the other RIRs, 
    and now *you* are the only ones stubbornly refusing to follow my 
    all-the-others-are-doing-this argument") - it's a somewhat weak one.
    
    You have failed to bring forward any reason for changing things, except
    
     "it is unfair that there is a difference"
    
    (without detailing what exactly the unfairness would be, who would
    be disadvantaged by this, exactly, and why they would be affected 
    positively by this proposal) - and
    
     "all the other RIRs have changed this!"
    
    which is both not very compelling.
    
    
    I could also not see anyone speak up in a supportive way, so I'd consider
    this "sufficiently discussed, and no support to go for a formal proposal".
