I would ask this serious question. Why do over 4million addresses capable
of being routed on the internet need to be allocated to a non
routable space.
I asked a similar question on this very list over 10 years ago regarding
the 44.0.0.0/8. I suggested leasing the space out to provide income to fund
the 44net.
Wow the asbestos suit had a work out after that post. Flash forward and the
sale of the space to fund amature radio.
I again ask what is so special about this one project that over 4 of the
12million addresses be allocated to something that could be done with a
private address space?
10.0.0.0/8 could not be used instead of millions of dollars worth of IP
addresses or IP addresses that could be fully routed to the internet for
other uses?
Is there something special I am missing here? Is there some compelling
reason to use routable addresses on a private network that NAT in a
cheap router can't handle?
Are there really 4million addresses that could ever be used in this
project? Or is this a good place to sell while the market is way up there
for IP space?
Asbestos gear dawned ready for the flames.
Just a note from a very wise woman. "Just because you don't agree with some
one does not make them wrong"

Fellow radio amateurs, I am writing to you on behalf
of the ARDC TAC,
which I represent.
Those of you that were on our Community Call last Saturday may remember
that I promised you we would share our first proposal with the community. A
few days after that, I am happy to send that to you for your review,
feedback, comments, questions, and information!
You can find our 5-page PDF here: https://pdf.daknob.net/ardc/tac128.pdf <
https://pdf.daknob.net/ardc/tac128.pdf>
The title is "ARDC 44.128/10 Allocation Proposal” and it briefly explains
what we propose to do with the IPv4 space of ARDC. It is based on careful
consideration, planning, and actual research[1] performed on the IP network
and the Portal allocations.
Since the TAC does not have any authority on the IP (or any other)
resources of ARDC, and we only have an advisory role, we end this document
with a proposed resolution we intend to submit soon to the ARDC Board of
Directors, where we urge them to vote and approve some key things required
for us to be able to achieve what is described.
We believe that the TAC represents the community and the 44 Net users, so
we created this document and post it here in advance, with the purpose of
being able to answer your questions, collect your feedback, and hear from
you. This is why we briefly explain the situation in about 4 pages, and
then we end with the resolution we want the ARDC Board of Directors to
approve.
I hope you like it, and I remain at your disposal for anything you may
need.
Antonis
