We rejected this idea back in 2008 in Rabat Morocco during the AFRINIC
meeting and here we go again.

there is an obvious reason for supporting IP Leasing, which is that

Your sales pitch is rather fascinating....

I mean, I spend my career building both small and large impactiful network
infrastructure and numbering them using IPv4 space allocated based on
justified need of providing a wide range of internet connectivity services,
hosting applications and naming etc.

So Widjane, should members whose business is to lease IPv4 space for 30USD
per IP be charged by AFRINIC, 20USD per IPv4 out of their total
allocation.?

Cheers,
Noah
