By having a public discussion of these important issues, </div><div>APNIC (as an ITU-D sector member) can submit the outcome for </div><div>further consideration in this process.</div><div><br></div><div>While the ITU IPv6 study group is a closed meeting, I have received </div><div>an invitation to participate on March 15-16 in Geneva on ARIN's behalf</div><div>as an "invited expert", and at that session I will focus on the comments </div><div>covered in the public consultation held today. If you have additional</div><div>input on this topic that you would like to have considered, please do</div><div>the following:</div><div><br></div><div>1) If your company has a public policy representative involved in the </div><div> ITU (generally due to being a supporting member of the ITU),</div><div> please introduce me to them asap so that we may coordinate</div><div> as appropriate.</div><div><br></div><div>2) Become familiar with the outcomes of the APNIC session, and </div><div> send any additional comments to "<a href="mailto:IPv6@apnic.net">IPv6@apnic.net</a>" and myself. </div><div> The APNIC community consultation process continues till Friday</div><div> 5 March, 9 AM local meeting time [UTC + 8:00]. I will continue</div><div> to take comments beyond that point till ITU IPv6 meeting start</div><div> and do my best to convey the input received.</div><div><br></div><div>As you can tell, we're attempting to be as accommodating as possible</div><div>to the ITU as they explore the issues in this area, and their processes</div><div>are significantly different than ours regarding how input is received and</div><div>considered. At this point, ARIN considers it very important to support </div><div>these educational efforts, and hope that it will result in better overall</div><div>understanding of the success that is today's Internet Registry System.</div><div><br></div><div>I hope this email helps the community understand where we are in</div><div>this interesting process.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you for your support!</div><div>/John</div><div><br></div><div>John Curran</div><div>President and CEO</div><div>American Registry for Internet Numbers </div><div><br></div></div><div>===</div><div><br></div><blockquote type="cite">From: <b class="gmail_sendername">Member Services</b> <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:info@arin.net">info@arin.net</a>></span><br>Date: Wed, Feb 24, 2010 at 8:53 AM<br>Subject: [arin-announce] Be Heard!
