1. Welcome

The Chair called the meeting to order at 5:05 p.m. EDT. The presence of a quorum was noted via roll call. The Chair also noted the presence of counsel.

The Chair called for any comments. Ray Plzak requested that the Chair update the Board on vendor disputes. It was agreed to add this as item 4a., under Any Other Business.

3. ARIN Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM)

Scott Bradner moved that:

“The ARIN Board of Trustees adopts the ARIN Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM).”

This was seconded by Lee Howard.

The Chair called for any comments. Ray Plzak gave an update on the history of this document noting that the AC had formed committees to review pertinent portions of the document, and came back to ARIN staff with edits that were only grammatical and did not change the language of any of the policies. The document was then further reviewed by the AC, and recommended to the Board for adoption during the AC’s September 27, 2004 teleconference. It was noted that it is the assertion of the President and the AC that this is only a reformatting of existing policy statements.

The motion carried unanimously via roll call vote.
