Suggestion: *

The NRPM Change log ( https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm_changelog.html ) 
is an excellent record of the changes in the NRPM over time. Most 
changes are caused by the implementation of Draft Policies, and the 
related Draft Policies for each change, in addition to the sections 
changed, are recorded for each change and the Draft Policies may be 
reviewed to provide more detailed context regarding the change in question.

However, in the case of editorial changes there is no additional context 
provided, only a listing of the sections changed. Future, editorial 
changes should provide a reference explaining the details of the change 
and possibly the rationale or motivation for the editorial change for 
historical reference.

If possible, previous editorial changes should be updated with such 
information as well.

Thanks.

*Response:*

Thank you for your suggestion, numbered 2012.22 upon receipt, requesting 
some short description in the NRPM change log when editorial changes are 
made.

We think this is a valid request and going forward we will add a small 
description about what prompted the editorial update. As time permits we 
will back fill the change log with this information where appropriate.

Thank you for participating in the ARIN Consultation and Suggestion 
Process. Suggestion 2012.22 is now closed.
