What changed
RIPE NCC proposal 2011-01, “Global Policy for post exhaustion IPv4 allocation mechanisms by the IANA,” was introduced on 21 March 2011 and recorded as accepted on 20 October 2011. The supplied record contains version 1.0 only, so it does not establish textual changes across versions. That version proposes a recovered IPv4 pool administered by IANA, conditional on ICANN Board adoption. The pool would become active when any RIR reports less than a /9 in its inventory. In each six-month allocation period, every RIR would receive one equal unit, calculated as one-fifth of the pool and rounded down to a CIDR boundary; a unit below /24 would mean no distribution for that period. The proposal permits limited public reporting of allocation ranges, dates, and recipient registries.
