Chris, Thanks.
One of the problems with POC validation is that ARIN tries to validate all POCS, and does not have a relationship with some. There is a proposal to reduce the validation to only the set of POCs that ARIN has a direct relationship with. This is problematic because it is through this annual validation that one finds they have become a POC on some resource. So without out the annual check, those organizations will NOT have the awareness and knowledge to resolve that issue between themselves. The solution is a bi-directional check. I think the ARIN objection is that it is problematic for the SWIPee to modify the record of the SWIPer. But I see no problem with the SWIPee getting notified, or even ACKing or NACKIing the SWIP. __Jason On Sat, Apr 14, 2018 at 2:23 PM Christian Tacit <cta...@tacitlaw.com> wrote: > Hi Jason, > > > > Although I did look into the issue raised by your March 15 email promptly > after receiving it.
