Greetings,

Could you clean up the language a little, and perhaps rephrase it as
an insert into the NRPM with the appropriate numbering?

Reading this, it isn't clear to me whether you intend 1.1 and 1.2 to
apply to single and multihomed LIRs (ISPs) respectively, or whether
you intend it to apply to LIRs (ISPs) and end-user orgs respectively.

Regards,
Bill Herrin
