PDP Number: 2008-03 Global Policy for the Allocation of the Remaining IPv4 Address Space

Which addresses do we talk about? According to http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space/ the last remaining space is 240/4.

Dear working group members, I would like to draw your attention to this proposal and the fact that the last call period ends shortly. As this is a global policy proposal it is in progress also in the other regions - and from todays Address council meeting I understand that it is likekly that this policy will pass in most of the other regions. You can review the background report at http://aso.icann.org/docs/index3.html As I believe this is an important proposal - I urge you all to consider if you think the current policy is sufficient to run to the end or if this proposal will make planning towards the end easier. As a separate point we should also start to think about our own regional policy m- on what to do with the remaining address space when we approach the end in our region. It is important that you state if you support this proposal to this list during the last call period. Best Regards, Hans Petter Holen ICANN Address council member from the RIPE NCC region
