I support this proposal because there's an obvious need for it - what's not exactly clear to me however is if current IANA inventory (IIRC there was more there than just /8s) will be put into that same 'recovered' pool so no addresses get stuck (other than some scraps < /24).

You can find the full proposal at:
This proposal is doing another round of 4-week review phase because of a distinct lack of feedback on it (one question, but no support / objection comments).
There currently is a lack of policy at IANA/ICANN regarding distribution of "smaller than a /8" address blocks that happen to show up in the IANA pool - which means that even if such blocks should be found, IANA cannot distribute them to the RIRs. Which those of you that still use IPv4 might then be interested in receiving...
This being a global policy, we don't do word smithing on it (the text should be the same in all regions), so your choice is easy: support, or objection.
Taking off the WG chair's hat, I think this is necessary housekeeping, and should be done -> *support* (this implies that I don't get to decide whether we have consensus on this one, but Sander will be the neutral WG chair that oversees the process).
Putting the hat back on, I welcome your comments!
Gert Doering -- APWG chair -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...?
