OD stated that he believed the absence of any objections to the revised text indicated support. He believed any other revisions could be done at a later time. He was in favor of moving it forward.

AD stated he would like to see more public support since the language had been changed quite a bit. He did not believe the policy does a lot in the ARIN region, as it is a clarification. He reiterated that he would like to see more community support, to include the author’s thoughts.
