Leo -
To be clear, the ARIN Advisory Council (ARIN AC) is definitely following
the current ARIN policy development process. If they weren't, I would be
obligated to directly intervene.
It is true that the present Policy Development process allows the AC ample
latitude in changing the policy proposals, with the requirement that if the
Advisory Council sends a draft policy to last call that is different from
the one presented at the public policy meeting, then the Advisory Council
will provide an explanation for all changes made to the text.
My message to NANOG was to encourage folks to speak out on the PPML mailing
list regarding their thoughts on the draft policy, as that is the forum
where the input will have the most impact. I will note that ARIN also just
completed an open consultation on a revised Policy Development Process, and
while it has closed, I will take directly any suggestions that you have for
changes to that process that you feel are necessary.
Thanks!
