[arin-ppml] (Corrected copy) Recommended Draft Policy ARIN-2023-4: Modernization of Registration Requirements

I do not support this Draft Policy at this time, as I noted earlier...

    If we are "modernizing" the language of this section that should
    include removing old and outdated terminology.  While the terms
    "WHOIS" and "SWIP" are popular in the community, they are protocols
    and methods which are being replaced by new modern protocols and
    methods.  The language should be updated to reflect those new terms
    or use generic terms such as directory services or registration records.


Thanks,
Andrew

This draft policy is found to be fair, impartial and technically sound. Based on community feedback and AC discussion we motion to move ARIN-2023-4: Modernization of Registration Requirements to Recommended Draft. If adopted this policy aims to modernize the registration related policies in Section 4.
