[rpd] AFRINIC Number Resources Transfer Policy

In the whole of these mix, can't we have the transfer of the resource to be
temporal.

For example I have a pool of ipv4 resources that I am not utilising at the
moment, I should be able to lease it out for a period say 24months or more.
And if I have a need for the resource later, I should be able to retrieve
it back without going to the RIR for another allocation.

Furthemore after the retrieval and.i am still short of my current needs i
can approach the RIR for new allocation I believe.

The point is, my earlier leased resource can be used anywhere in the world,
then how does all the current Inter RIR policies under discussion takes
care of this situation.

Simply
Daniel

Why not?
Unless they can prove they retrieve the last block of address they
'transfer' (aka SELL), why should they get more from the community pool?
And again. I oppose this "The AfriNIC Broker Support Policy"
