No. No no. That's what the AC did BEFORE the board created the PDP.
Now they're charged with writing the policies.

You are correct prior to 2004.

Hi John,

I think you mean 2009. The PDP was introduced in 2009 and modified in
2013. For the first 12 years of ARIN's existence, the AC could suggest
improvements to proposal authors, but the authors were in charge.

Not quite - from 2004 onwards, the ARIN AC put forth the changed version,
but author was allowed (if they disagreed) to put theirs forward as well –

"Depending on the level of community support the Advisory Council may: 1) support the proposal as is, 2) work with the author to clarify, revise, divide or combine with other proposals, or 3) find there is community support to abandon the proposal.

If the Advisory Council evaluation concludes that the community wants them to work with the author to clarify, revise, divide or combine with other proposals (decision point #2, above), and the Advisory Council and the author can not reach an agreement, then competing versions of the policy proposal from the Advisory Council and author will go to last call.”

(From the ARIN 2004 PDP - note that it is the member-elected ARIN Advisory
Council that is charged with evaluation and revision post public policy meeting)

Thanks,
/John
