Re: 72/8 friendly reminder

it seems that even bureaucrazy ripe managed to do it without holding policy discussions; see henk's posting.

I believe that RIPE does these things BECAUSE it is more bureaucratic than ARIN. As a result, RIPE staff feel more empowered to do sensible projects outside of the policy process. In any case, it is not important how the message gets communicated to ARIN. What is important is for network operators to *TELL* ARIN what they need ARIN to do. One way to talk to ARIN is through the public meetings and another way is to email one of the trustees. --Michael Dillon
