... i purposefully phrased it a bit differently, how can arin engage, get real participation from, and serve its community, the operators. i was stealing examples from ripe.
but, for concrete action, how about a half day session at the next nanog meeting on, for example, arin database services, whois and irr. not to try to reach hard conclusions or plans. but to open a dialog to explore what the community gets and wants from these services and how they are provided.
My earlier message was sent before I saw this, but I think we converged on the important point: ARIN needs to engage in a much better manner with the ops community (more than just an ARIN update preso and registration helpdesk); this should be closer to a "services wg" model.
