Hi,

This is not correct. In fact, the word "consensus" appears only twice
in the current policy development process document, one of those in
the following context: "If consensus is not achieved [...] the
President may facilitate the selection process."

In practice, a policy is adopted through a series of votes: several by
the advisory council followed by a final vote by the board of
trustees. The members of the board and advisory council are in turn
elected by a vote only of ARIN's members.

Policy proposals are informed by public input and public debate and
often originate from non-ARIN members. But procedurally, adopting
policy is not bound to adhere to the prevailing public viewpoint,
either directly or through representation.

Regards,
Bill Herrin

Scott,

Can we assume it intends to change the IPv4 policy only?

Though the problem statement describes about IPv4,
the policy statement doesn't specify IPv4 or both.

Bill -

That is not correct.

Under the Policy Development Process (which is adopted by the ARIN Board 
and binding on participants in the process, including the ARIN Advisory 
Council), draft policies are to be "supported by the community" and 
documented accordingly in order for the AC to recommend for adoption -

<https://www.arin.net/policy/pdp.html>

> 4. Recommendation of Draft Policies

This is then confirmed as a result of a Public Policy Meeting and public
Last call before the policy is send to the ARIN Board of Trustees for 
ratification. The Board routinely confirms the community support during 
its review of the policy's development process before ratifying policy 
changes.

The AC is _bound_ by adopted processes to recommend policies _supported
by the community_ and the Board serves to confirm that this occurs.

The primary issue I want to avoid people going up and down several 
times.  I guess we don't need restrict it to people who received a /32 
before the /36 or /40 were available.  So, I'd be OK everyone having one 
opportunity to reduce form /32 to /36 or /40.

Unless you intended to create a generic ability to reduce your 
allocations that would apply to everyone and not just to the x-small and 
xx-small categories.  But that wasn't explicitly clear, and I took it 
that it was intended to allow low end adjustments.  I'd like other to 
weigh in on if there should be a generic ability to reduce your IPv6 
allocation.

Why would this be expected, and/or a concern?

The challenge, of course, is that circumstances do change, and  (for example)
a party that thought it wanted to move up to /32 might change its mind a year
later...  

ARIN is here to serve the community, so the normal response to any request 
should be "Yes", unless there a clear reason (example, potential impacts
to other parties) that something should be prohibited by policy.  Is that
the case here, and can you elaborate on the policy concern that you see?

Specific policy regarding return of IPv6 space might be necessary if you want 
ARIN not to accept returns (or only accept whole blocks and not partial, etc.)

Yes, probably. I added the last sentence to make it abundantly clear, 
that is the intended effect of the first sentence.  If John and staff 
interpret the first sentence as requiring ARIN to reserve a /32 for 
anyone with a x-small or xx-small IPv6 allocation, then I would be happy 
to remove the last sentence.  But, if there is anyway to interpret the 
first sentence as not requiring the a hard reservation of a /32 then I 
think I'd prefer to leave the sentence in.

What do other think?

Thanks.
