AC Assessment of Conformance with the Principles of Internet Number Resource Policy:

“Draft Policy ARIN-2022-12: Direct Assignment Language Update, conforms to the principles of the ARIN Policy Development Process. This draft policy is found to be fair, impartial, and technically sound. Based on community feedback and AC discussion we motion to move ARIN 2022-12: Direct Assignment Language Update, to Recommended Draft. If adopted this policy aims to update the language of Number Policy Resource Manual to remove references to the deprecated term “assignment” and use the term “allocation,” which conforms with current ARIN business practices.”

It is fair, impartial, technically sound and has received support from the community.”
