The arin-consult mailing list is specifically for handling suggestions and is open to the general public. That does not preclude discussion on arin-ppml, but we have had complaints in the past of too much non-policy traffic on PPML and hence made arin-consult list specifically for suggestions. You will note that there has been no suggestion that arin-ppml is inappropriate for such a purpose over the discussions of that last two days; it is simply a question of how the community wishes to organize its discussions; one omnibus list or a distinct list for operational and organization matters which are not number resource policy development.
