[ppml] The most important proposal ARIN forgot to send today...

[Ray Plzak]

These documents were to be released in a coordinated manner at midnight
UTC (8 PM EDT) today.  LACNIC released them early.  APNIC , ARIN, and
RIPE NCC will release as scheduled.  Sorry no black helicopters, no
memory loss on the part of ARIN, just premature release on the part of
LACNIC.

> Supporting
> Organization), the ICANN section committed to the Internet Number
> Resources issues. The ASO was created through a previous Memorandum of
> Understanding, signed in 1999. The current proposal would  replace the
> previous Memorandum, modifying the present ASO structure.
