Don't see why its to late to submit a draft policy
for the upcoming meeting.

Bylaws say 30 days.  Meeting is  Monday 7-April.

Seems like we have at least till 28-Feb, to get stuff
to Richard, who could then get it posted by the 6-Mar
time to be in agreement with the By-laws.

Anyone what to work with me on making changes to the
existing policy and submitting that to ARIN ??

Note: Don't signup unless you intend to work quick and
hard :)
