Hi, Cathy.

It was also brought up in the APNIC region and that region also turned it down. 

My understanding is that the IETF didn't think they were the appropriate venue, and that this was a policy question more appropriate
for the RIR community.  But, I confess: I didn't participate closely in that discussion.  Is there something that we can reference
(e.g. an archive or document) to understand this decision?

[WEG] the /10 version was discussed on OPSAWG - you can see the thread here. I don't recall there being much discussion about
whether it was IETF's purview or not, at least on that draft. Maybe the previous one was different. Most of it was the same things
that were discussed here - will it actually do anything, why can't you just deploy IPv6, NAT's are Evil, etc. ;-)
 http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/opsawg/current/maillist.html  - look from Aug to November 2010, specifically the threads
titled "heads up", "draft-weil".
