Christine - Thanks for your message! For clarity and to aid the folks who are working on this policy proposal (Draft Policy ARIN-2014-9, which removes the need for ARIN to seek utilization during M & M transfers), I take it that your message is in support of adoption of the draft policy? Thanks! /John John Curran President and CEO ARIN _______________________________________________ PPML You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List ([email protected]).
