Thanks for raising this… here’s how ARIN Meeting Invites are handled –
A series of announcements about registration and related reminders are sent to arin-announce and published on www.arin.net, including:
Registration Open – 12-16 weeks prior Meeting Materials Available – 1 week prior Meeting Open – Day 1
There are two direct email invitations:
Admin and Tech POCs within 100 – 150 miles of the meeting location – 45-30 days prior Admin, Tech, and Voting Contacts for all Member organizations (Service and General) – “Per the VA nonstock corporation act - Formal notice (to membership) shall be no more than 60 days and no less than 10 days prior to the announced date of the special meeting.” (Note that our registration system will dedupe so that contacts do not receive both of these emails.)
All ASN holders are now legal members of ARIN, and therefore by applicable law get notice of the meetings.
We could probably cut this list to just Admin and Voting by dropping Tech contacts, but you’d end up getting one via the Admin POC. (you want to suggest such a change - or any other change on how our meeting announcements are handled, then please submit such to the ARIN Consultation and Suggestion Process - https://www.arin.net/participate/community/acsp/process/ )
Thanks! /John

Thank you for your response John. My suggestion here is that legal text you quoted would be useful at the bottom of such emails so recipients know why they are getting them. I'll look into getting the suggestion submitted via the official channel. -- packetcat https://bastetrix.com
