    This above kinda sums up the issue.  My understanding is this language 
    comes from the RSA.
    
    While the document grants the right to be the registrant and use the 
    "Included Number Resources", other language stating that you cannot use 
    someone elses number resources without the permission of the registrant of 
    those OTHER resources is missing from the RSA.  That is what needs fixing.
    
    Of course, it is not easy to amend the RSA.  Therefore it is being 
    advanced to add the BGP hijacking language to the NRPM, which each ARIN 
    RSA signer has also agreed to follow.
    
    If the language is added to the NRPM and the hijacker is an ARIN RSA 
    signer, enforcement could be up to and including the revoke of all ARIN 
    resources.  However, all the worldwide resources are NOT assigned to ARIN, 
    therefore nothing can really be done by ARIN in these cases where the 
    hijacker is NOT an ARIN member.
    
    As a result, the Advisory Committee declared it totally out of scope, even 
    though it does appear in scope if the hijacking is being done by an ARIN 
    RSA signer.
    
    Unless this conflict can be solved, it is out of scope, at least when it 
    would be applied to non ARIN RSA signers.  However, I think it is in scope 
    when hijacking of ARIN assigned resources occur by an ARIN RSA signer.

When a policy proposal is sent to a specific RIR, I understand that if finally, that results, thru the PDP, in a policy, will be only in scope of the members of that RIR.

That's why, we have two ways of doing it:
1) A global policy, which requires same text reach consensus in all the 5 RIRs (and it may be more difficult and slower to achieve), or
2) An equivalent policy in each of the 5 RIRs, which is the path we decided for this specific policy proposal.

So, I don't see a "conflict" in that aspect, just part of the process, and as you say, a proposal can't be declared out-of-scope because "it will only apply" to this or that region.

When I've observed similar problems in the policy manuals of different regions, I always tried to follow the same path, and most of the time, it works, because even having different "cultures", we all work in the same Internet.

Jordi
