A side note that responds to these questions for all the Inter-RIR transfer proposals:
When a proposal reach consensus, it needs a few weeks for the last call, then the ratification of the board, then starts the implementation.
Staff has reported that they will need 6 months (I think this is too short, according to past experience in other RIRs).
Anyway, all the process in total will take typically 9-12 months.
By then, is easy to understand that the exhaustion phase 2 will be already in place.
Regards,
Jordi

Because the resources were give to you base on NEED. If you no longer need

Agree 100%,
Then you have no problems with wait till all RIRs are equal run out before
we etablish full in and out transfer policy no?

All RIRs don't all have equal amount of free space. Big difference

While AfriNIC have free space, operators don't need it
When it run out, then we can allow transfer policy
Until that time, I oppose these "AfriNIC Broker Support Policy"
