[arin-ppml] Last Call - Recommended Draft Policy ARIN-2020-2: Reinstatement of Organizations Removed from Waitlist by Implementation of ARIN-2019-16

[Fernando Frediani]

of 'leaving people free to choose to do it whenever they feel like 
without any penalties', but at the same time is forgotten that nobody 
exists alone in the Internet ecosystem and that certain decisions worse 
the problem to everybody else.
