To be clear, the ARIN Advisory Council (ARIN AC) is definitely following=
=20
the current ARIN policy development process. If they weren't, I would be=
=20
obligated to directly intervene.

It is true that the present Policy Development process allows the AC ampl=
e=20
latitude in changing the policy proposals, with the requirement that if t=
he=20
Advisory Council sends a draft policy to last call that is different from=
=20
the one presented at the public policy meeting, then the Advisory Council=
=20
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 maili=

list regarding their thoughts on the draft policy, as that is the forum=20
where the input will have the most impact. I will note that ARIN also ju=

completed an open consultation on a revised Policy Development Process, a=
nd
while it has closed, I will take directly any suggestions that you have f=
or
changes to that process that you feel are necessary.
Thanks!
