Say a subscriber ports a number to/from a different telco. Then, after<br>
some time, the subscriber decides they no longer want the phone number<br>
(or phone service in general). What should be done with this abandoned<br>
number?<br>
<br>
Should the number immediately be returned to the donor telco?<br>
<br>
Should the number be returned to the donor telco after aging?<br>
<br>
Is it permissible for the recipient telco to add this number to their<br>
inventory and then re-assign the number to a different subscriber?<br>
