Just to keep the discussion reality-based... The last "Global Policy for Allocation of ASN Blocks to the RIRs" actually went through the ARIN region in a prompt and straightforward fashion: - Formal introduction on PPML on 31 August 2009 - AC recommened Board adopt - 24 November 2009 - Adopted by the ARIN Board - 13 January 2010 Furthermore, the staff assessment indicated "Counsel does not see any material legal issues related to this policy." <https://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/2009_6.html> None of this is a predicator of how a revision to the Global ASN allocation policy would proceed, but in terms of Global Policy, it's likely the easiest one to change in short order. The real difficulty I see here is getting the community to actually converge on how they want these 16- and 32- bit ASN pools managed, and the process is completely secondary to the matter...
