I am a heretic, but I would support leasing a chunk to pay for infrastructure to run 44net and make it more accessible and useable for the average Ham. Right now most of the space is used for what is basically non-routable or is not used at all. It would not take much for it to be yanked out from under us as thing stand.

On what legal basis would it "be yanked out from under us"?
It's not public spectrum like our ham bands are, it's private property. - Brian

That's a valid use of IP space. Many things are not in the global table but have a need of unique IP space. Even ARIN calls this out in 4.3.5, and the other RIR's have a policy of this. Regardless the AMPR allocation predates this and is not subject to this.
It would not take much for it to be yanked out from under us as thing stand.
Care to explain? ARDC owns the space. It's not a grant or license from an RIR, but is legally property as it was allocated by Postel in the 80's.
The only conceivable way I could see this happening would be someone sues ARDC and ARDC would not have money to defend itself. Even this is a bit far fetched, but as 44/8 is worth in excess of 200M USD, it does stick out for an "enterprising" lawyer to target.
At the end of the day a /8 isn't going to buy us even a couple months of IPv4 burn. If we all do IPv6 now, in 10 years 44/8 will be worthless.

I'm still waiting for IPv6... It's nearly 2019 - if carriers haven't deployed IPv6 by now, then they probably never plan to.
Only one Australian carrier supports it on their mobile and landline networks, with a smaller scale deployments at niche ISPs. For the overwhelming majority, traditional dynamic IPv4 allocations or CG-NAT is being used.
Until a major site like Facebook release a new feature that's only available on IPv6 and customers hassle their ISPs about it, carriers are going to go with what's cheap and what they know - and that's NAT.

Just saying as it is “private” property there is no reason that part of the space could not be leased to pay for multiple access points, VPN, hosting ect. The market is ripe the price has probably peaked and a lease is not a permanent re-assignment. Having users wards off the vultures. If there was a system of VPN outlets it would provide the ability for hams to “host” their applications at their house, tower ect. I would pay for this. I do pay for this now, but it does not have a 44net address. Lin

That would not be difficult at all. Announce a /24 via BGP and then you could hand out a bunch of /28 or /29s via any number of VPN technologies.
This is what has already been done in many countries. However one would not want to connect from say France, Netherlands or Belgium, ... to a vpn gateway in the states and have everything routed there. That would give us way too much latency. The other way round would be that Americans would not want to connect to a gateway in Europe and have everything routed over Europe. You would need geographically placed POPs that can serve a region with minimal latency to and from the internet. Like we are doing today.

I would see a more likely situation of a theft of parts of the space. This has already occurred on a small scale. It takes money to defend patents it talks money to operate 16m addresses.
I was just suggesting lease a few blocks to have income to further the use by hams, provide capital to provide low cost pops and have additional access points in the event the deal at UCSD ever goes away. Do this while the price is high to form an endowment to run the technology in the future. Lin On Fri, Nov 9, 2018 at 6:10 AM Tony Ellis tonyellis3.te@gmail.com wrote:

What I am getting at is this is millions of dollars worth of IP real estate. There are no rules defining how it is to be used other than self imposed rules. As the market seems to be at a peek I think it is worth discussion to lease addresses to some major player like Google or Amazon in exchange for POP access, funding of an endowment for future research, hardware, ect. What is the value of lets say 2 million contiguous addresses on the open market?

Addresses are both valuable and worthless. They have a incalculable value to the AMPR community. 95% or more of the users of this group will never get a chance to actually have a chance to get access to a block of public addresses to play with and learn. Sure selling access to the IP addresses (there would not be a way to lease properly Amazon or Googe would NEVER give them back, and ultimately lawyer up and stop paying the group.) Plus wouldn't that invalidate the charter or this whole thing were it is to be used for non-commercial purposes??? I would say if we open that box it will start the clock to where we loose this whole thing.
I say leave it as is... This is just like RF spectrum. we are granted use of our little slice and would never think of giving that up... Why would we think of doing the same here.
Also. Anyone who wants server space or a place to land thier addresses I have plenty of free space available (physical and virtual) in my Denver Data Center.... Only for AMPR/Hams.... Just message me and we can work something out..

How does it work, for example, if someone happens to have a business grade ISP circuit, BGP, and would like to advertise out a portion of the 44/8 to the public internet. What organization (HAM organization) does that go through, can a form be filled out to get a /29 of something out of that /8 for of course the purpose of HAM.

Most carriers won’t accept a BGP announcement for anything under a /24. If you want to get a amprnet /24 and announce it, there’s forms on the ampr.org portal that Brian has to sign off for the LOA.

I would say if we open that box it will start the clock to where we loose this whole thing.
I say leave it as is... This is just like RF spectrum. we are granted use of our little slice and would never think of giving that up... Why would we think of doing the same here.
Also. Anyone who wants server space or a place to land thier addresses I have plenty of free space available (physical and virtual) in my Denver Data Center.... Only for AMPR/Hams.... Just message me and we can work something out..

ah, very true regarding the /24. okay, interesting, i was just curious.

Most carriers won’t accept a BGP announcement for anything under a /24. If you want to get a amprnet /24 and announce it, there’s forms on the ampr.org portal that Brian has to sign off for the LOA.

How does it work, for example, if someone happens to have a business

for of course the purpose of HAM.

I should clarify why they are worthless... $300 million to Amazon or Google is nothing... Amazon will loose more than that in shipping this holiday season. They would clearly be the only viable buyers of such a chunk of space. They don't need it, and would only take it so someone else doesn't... not really community (HAM) like... it would be for pure profit.. Besos doesn't need any more money...I pay him enough with my Prime membership and all my purchases..
