I really don't think that namespace issues are part of the role for the ASO AC.
Why do you think there is an ASO?
To coordinate numberspace issues between the IANA and the RIRs.
This is clearly a problem for ICANN's disaster-ridden domain-name side, and not for the ASO/NRO side of things.
Because there is clearly no inter-relation between domains and address and the operation of the Internet.
Oh, there is tremendous inter-relation. However, making a mess and then punting it to the ASO is an entirely different matter.
Operationally, it's a horrible idea, but, most of us in layers 1-4 stopped paying much attention to the disasters happening at ICANN for DNS along time ago as we sort of came to believe that we didn't have enough money to bribe^h^h^h^h^hinfluence the right people in a sufficiently meaningful way to make our voices heard.
Aren't you one of the folks who state that if you don't participate in PPML then you have no reason to criticize ARIN policies?
It doesn't cost anything to participate in PPML. Owen
