I would have loved to read Muller's thoughts before contributing. <br><br>I recall this topic did come up in Dar, during the AfriNIC-14? It proposed by some participant from TENET, SA and it did generate quite some debate then. My take is that this is a topic that is likely to get increasingly contentious going forward and members need to really start ventilating on the situation.<br><br>Do we as a community want to:<br>a) NOT trade our v4 space, even as the v4 black market prospers?<br>b) can we technically stop members from trading in v4 space?<br>c) should we "legalize" or sanitize the v4 black market by providing a formal policy on the same?<br>d) etc.<br><br>I dont have the answers on this but I would like to hear views from the floor.<br><br>walu.<br><br><br><br><br>---
