Policy changes seem reasonable. The mission was to help filter out what the
IX community can advise ARIN as to what are not solid requests for
resources. It included national security risk.

The policy as currently re-written supports that intent and lets ARIN apply
considerations that may be relevant overall while not stunting the value of
IXP’s and their growth.

It really can’t get any better.

Warm regards,
