Good point, getting greater operator participation in the policy processes is
important. APRICOT and APNIC having joint meeting is one of the good 
ways to bring more operators to APNIC policy discussion. I noticed on the 
Policy SIG session @APNIC 39, there will be some short background instroductions
by APNIC staff (could be someone from the community who is familiar with the 
policy history in future) before the proposal discussion, I think it's a very 
good 
way to faciliate the new comers to understand and join the discussion.

I'm thinking if we set part of or whole Policy SIG session on the same days 
when APRICOT or APCERT sessions are running, say Tuesday, or Wednesday, will 
it help that more operators attend the policy discussions?


Cheers,
Jessica Shen
