when you speak of "board" and "policy" in the same sentence you pique my 
interest. i'm assuming you mean corporate policy not numbers policy, since 
numbers policy is made by the community and only confirmed by the board.

are you contemplating a requirement attesting to some kind of intent to 
operate a real network (rather than, in your example, simply offshoring the 
resources and starting over with a different name)? if so, how would you 
suggest that arin enforce such a thing?
