Draft Policy ARIN-2025-2

Clarify 8.5.1 Registration Services Agreement

Status: Under Discussion
Shepherds: Gus Reese, Kendrick Knowles

Current Text (25 February 2025)

Problem Statement:

The current policy mandates that entities receiving transferred resources sign a new RSA unless they have an RSA on file no older than the last two versions. However, defining RSA versioning requirements within the NRPM does not align with the Policy Development Process (PDP) guidelines, as determining which RSA version is considered current is a business decision rather than a policy matter.

Policy Statement:

Remove (within the last two versions) from 8.5.1 to state: The receiving entity must sign an RSA covering all resources to be transferred unless that entity has a current RSA on file per ARIN business practices.

Timetable for Implementation: Immediate.
