[arin-ppml] Policy Proposal: Extend Experimental Renewal Timeframe

Randy's answer should suffice.

But since its asked despite it being in the rational of the proposal I will re-word it.

If a more point blank explanation is needed maybe this one will work:

Its a waste of time and money for both parties (ARIN Staff and Experimenter).  One year is a short timeframe for any experiment to have to take time out for administrivia.  And while 1 year is a waste of time for both parties it wont do any harm to push it out to 2 years which is a more realistic time frame for an experimenter to really figure out if they have something worth pursuing or not.  And it does NO harm to change it.


And yes there is an experiment with this space in progress which is why this bit of ridiculous adminsitrivia with a short time frame came up.

Cheers
Marla
