Yes: the intent is that an RP validator may ship and use the ARIN TAL by default.
If that is not clear in the revised RPA, then the RPA agreement will updated again for clarity.
Hi John, It's clear enough from section 9 that an RP validator may NOT ship and use the ARIN TAL without first adopting as its own the basic brokenness of ARIN's legal process around the TAL.This change looks to me like a swing and a miss. Understand John, open source software operates on a license tender basis. The user is presumed to have accepted the license contract on the basis of their lack of authority to have made a copy any other way. Placing additional restrictions is a poison pill.
