Two quick points -
Your concern about arin-discuss is understandable (i.e. you should not=20
have to join ARIN in order to discuss a potential concern of community=20
interest that you have with the agreement). I'll mention this to the=20
Board, and note in the meantime that the PPML mailing list often covers=20
far-ranging discussions such as these in case that becomes necessary.
Also, your emphasis above ("_that are not currently being utilized_"),
pointed our we need to clarify that it should include "all resources,=20
including those not currently being utilized", i.e. the phrase wasn't=20
intended to exclude *utilized* resources from "ARIN will take no action"=20
clause. I will have that fixed on the next version of the LRSA.
