[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2013-4: RIR Principles

John,

Reading your respons brings to mind a general question.

You said "the most likely change that would be anticipated
by insertation of that into ARIN policy would be ..."

In this and other cases the "that" is RFC-2050 text.

Shouldn't the text of RFC-2050 already impact ARIN policy?

(Assuming no translational issues, out of context, etc)
why would the impact differ when the text is in RFC-2050,
or in the NRPM?

(I'm not debating there is value in community being more clear
in outlining its expectations and impact on operations. I think
that point is true if this text is added to the NRPM and while this
text remains in RFC-2050.

We certainly can improve on the 2050 text, but I was trying to avoid
any updates that may be controversial, and was more interesting in
preserving the principles in 2050 in the first go around. )
