This fifth and final daily recap begins with the results of the policy proposals discussed on Wednesday during the Public Policy Forum:

• LAC-2012-06 - Resource transfers and gradual IPv4 exhaustion (Gustavo Lozano) - This proposal was withdrawn by its author, therefore its status is now "Abandoned."

• LAC-2012-01v3 - Eliminate the use of the term "dial-up" (Ricardo Patara) - The proposal will be sent back to the list for further discussion.

IPv6 was the star of this last day of LACNIC's tenth anniversary (LACNIC 18) and LACNOG 2012 event. Six presentations were made on the new protocol, and they are available at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mgbhvi4mszdyh1f/21Jpxh8bc6.

Although this was the last day of activities, the above and several other interesting presentations brought close to 150 people to the room.

Oscar Messano, President of LACNIC's Board of Directors, was in charge of the closing remarks during which he once again thanked the sponsors who made this meeting possible, attendants for their participation as well as LACNIC itself. He invited everyone to attend the next annual LACNIC meeting to be held in Medellin, Colombia, from 5 to 10 May 2013.

Look out for the meeting overview to be published in the coming days.
