At the moment I think there is a lot of detail that needs to be clarified here, including the terms Originating Policy / Destination Policy and 'Compatible Inter-RIR Policies'

If I read this right, a transfer size will depend on the larger of the RIPE (currently /22) and the other RIRs (e.g. ARIN /20). How strict or 'fuzzy' is 'Compatible' ?

When the allocation (or justification period moves out (from 3 months to 12 months, or 24 months - the policy number escapes me at this time), will we be using a fixed formula for time based justifications (what is a 24 Month period ? /19 ?, /18 ?, /16 ?) - Different LIRs can use (as in the past) different requirements / predictions for time period 'x'. Or is this to be judged on the previous allocations to an LIR over the preceding period 'x'.

At the moment I lean towards 'Oppose', as some of the text seems too vague to me, and may cause some interesting interpretations.

Although not strictly mentioned in this proposal, what (for example) happens to ERX space?. If a RIPE member acquires ERX space (lets say a /16), and then wants to perhaps offer that space to another member, does the classification stay as ERX (and the basic exemptions), or (on transfer) does it become regulated space (possible impact from 2012-07) and limited to a /22 (currently) that can only be transferred?
