Advisory Council Meeting Results - April 2016

[ARIN]

In accordance with the ARIN Policy Development Process (PDP), the ARIN
Advisory Council (AC) met on 20 April 2016.

The AC moved the following to last call (to be posted separately to last
call):

   Draft Policy ARIN-2015-3: Remove 30 day utilization requirement in 
end-user IPv4 policy

The AC abandoned the following:

   Draft Policy ARIN-2015-9: Eliminating needs-based evaluation for 
Section 8.2, 8.3, and 8.4 transfers of IPv4 netblocks

The AC provided the following statement. "The ARIN AC abandoned 2015-9 
because there was insufficient community support to bring the proposal 
forward and there did not appear to be any potential changes to the 
proposal that were likely to significantly improve the level of support."

The AC is continuing to work on:

   Draft Policy ARIN-2015-2: Modify 8.4 (Inter-RIR Transfers to 
Specified Recipients)
   Draft Policy ARIN-2015-7: Simplified requirements for demonstrated 
need for IPv4 transfers
   Draft Policy ARIN-2016-1: Reserved Pool Transfer Policy

The AC abandoned 2015-9. Anyone dissatisfied with this decision may
initiate a petition. The deadline to begin a petition will be five
business days after the AC's draft meeting minutes are published. For
