If my interpretation of the IA is correct, the retroactive part is restricted to evaluation of transfer requests. It means if/once the policy is implemented, it applies to resources already allocated by RIPE NCC but not yet transferred. Resources already transferred wont be affected.

Your interpretation is the same as mine, correct or not ;) The crux is, though: it changes ripe-623, the "IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment Policies for the RIPE NCC Service Region" document, not a hypothetical "Transfer Policies" document. This sets a precedent for changing *everything else* in this document and applying the changes retrospectively. I can't be the only one who does not want to go there? rgds, Sascha Luck
