<p>Thanks for the email, Mark. If I may quickly summarize your
email, you are recommending:</p>
<p>1. Maintain phase 1 and phase 2 of soft-landing status as
presently defined<br>
</p>
<p>2. Add a phase 3 in which the strategic reserve /12 (that was
hitherto for unforeseen use) is unlocked and used strictly for
organizations that have less than /22 at the time of application.
Allocation/assignment size for each application will be limited to
/22. Qualified organizations can apply up to twice for (/22)
allocations/assignments in phase 3 (as long as their final total
is not greater than /21).</p>
<p>3. Apply non-mobility to any resources received in phases 2 and
3. I guess this deals with the problem of people registering new
organizations just to access resources and then selling the
resources in a transfer. Such new companies could still be sold
lock, stock and barrel though?</p>
<p>Dear PDWG, please share your thoughts on the discussion list so
we can fine-tune.<br>
</p>
Regards,<br>
Dewole.<br>

I've been looking at the current Soft Landing proposal - the one that is
in existence and the one that I contributed a little bit to (thanks
Douglas!).
Essentially:-
Phase 1:
When we hit the last /8, Phase 1 reduces the max size of an
allocation/assignment from /10 to /13. It also carves off a /12 for
unforeseen use. This continues until we have a /11 left.
This will allow for 7 x /11's and a /12 - if people choose the largest
possible sizes. This will still take a while to go through.
Phase 2:
Allow people to get up to a /22. People can come back multiple times.
There are 2048 of these /22 blocks available. This would take a while to
burn through, simply because the process is a bit slow.
Then we are finished.
-------------
However - the Unforeseen /12 could still be used.
We already have reserves for IXP's and Critical infrastructure.
I'd like to see a revision that there is then a Phase 3:
That the /12 can be given out in /22's (there are 1024 of these) but
only to people with a total of less than a /21 (including what they ask
for). ie - New people could come back once. This I believe will last
multiple years.
I don't believe we need any further reserves.
We only need to last another two or three years.
Lastly - any addresses from Phase 2 or 3 can never be transferred, (M&A
included) and must be returned to AFRINIC for re-deployment.
Thoughts?
