[arin-ppml] Petitioning AC abandonment of Policy Proposal 92 Alternate IPv6 Allocation

Fri Jun 26 20:46:05 EDT 2009

Joe,

A successful petition would turn the proposal into a draft policy and you would control the text on the PPML and thru the upcoming Public Policy Meeting (you'd be the presenter). 

In order to petition, post to PPML that you wish to petition, and provide the proposal text that you wish to move forward. And as Bill Darte pointed out in a later post, go ahead and ask for support on the list. Success will require that 10 people agree with you.

The deadline to initiate a petition is 30 June as was stated in our post on 23 June. If this proposal is not successfully petitioned, then it will be closed.

The post about the AC abandoning the proposal is here:
