[rpd] IPv4 Inter RIR Resource Transfer (Comprehensive Scope)

[Precious Paul]

Dear all
Resource Transfer Policy
-AFRINIC currently has more IPv4 addresses than other RIRs. But it might
not be the case in the future especially when Africa is developing. So we
spare what we have excess now, we can have the favor returned when we need
it.

Regards,
Precious
