[rpd] Decisions and summary on policy proposals discussed during the online Policy meetin

Dear all,
RIPE indicates AFrinic the references and recommendations that it needs to
manage legacy space; the current transfer policy does not mainly focus on
it and I think it would be appropriate to discuss a different proposal to
solve problems related to the legacy status.
The RIPE NCC
<https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/legacy-resources/ripe-ncc-services-to-legacy-internet-resource-holders>
maintains
and publishes registry data for resources held by members and legacy
Internet resource holders and accommodates reverse DNS delegation and a
routing registry for IP addresses and AS Numbers, including legacy Internet
resources. These services are provided in respect of the relationship
established with the holder of that resource.
There is already a contractual connection between the RIPE NCC and the
Resource Holder. The Resource Holder can both decide to give back the
resource to the appropriate free pool or to register it without legacy
status as if it had been diffused by the RIPE NCC.
Regards,
Lucilla
