[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2015-5: Out of region use

I'm in favor of 2015-5, but think it's a little late to be even talking 
about this.  My problem with current policy is ARIN has adopted a highly 
conservative interpretation of vague policy (basically inventing policy 
disallowing out of region use when such a thing is not explicitly in any 
established policy).

There are ARIN members running global networks who have been using ARIN 
resources out of region for many years, only to eventually find out "those 
IPs don't count as 'utilized' depending on exactly how you've allocated 
and routed them."

Given how close ARIN is to run-out, I'm not sure how meaningful passage of 
2015-5 would be...but I'd still like to see more of a connection between 
ARIN's number policies and the actual NRPM (not some narrow interpretation 
of its vagueness).
