The ARIN Advisory Council is still looking to receive feedback concerning the 
retirement of the Slow Start section of the NRPM 4.2.1.4. So far most of the 
comments have been supportive along with some feedback that was gathered at 
NANOG 88, also supportive. Retirement of this section of the NRPM dovetails 
into current work being done by the Advisory Council NRPM working group in 
revising and cleaning up section 4 of the NRPM that deals primarily with IPv4 
allocations. A simple ya or nay will suffice in helping us determine the pulse 
of the community.

Sincerely,
Shepherds: Brian Jones and Amy Potter
