Hello,<br>
<br>
As IPv4 are finite and if we do the transfer, our resources may run out<br>
from our region-since there is no a explicit control motioned in the policy<br>
- As some people argue.<br>
Here what I suggest :<br>
<br>
? Establishing a leasing contract between the seller and the buyer<br>
up to 5 years with a possibility to renew it and AfriNIC will be the 3rd<br>
part of the deal .<br>
<br>
? AfriNIC takes no money and makes no approval.<br>
<br>
? The buyer needs to be registered somehow in the world.<br>
<br>
? The contract needs to be signed by the 3 parts<br>
(afriNIC-seller-buyer)<br>
<br>
So buy adopting this approach and if we notice that our resources are<br>
running out from our region, we can decide to bring them back and the<br>
companies do not renew the contract with .<br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards.<br>
<br>

Hi Souad,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The problem of this is that it will be useless with other RIRs, because they require reciprocity in their policies.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
If we forget that the major ?donor? is ARIN and we don?t do something that it is reciprocal with their policy.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I still think my approach with the suggested changes is the best one. ASAP I can get the impact analysis, I will review the text to accommodate to it and send a new version.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
