Owen, as best as I can tell you have served this community honorably during
your years of service. I would not support removing you or any other (who
discloses publicly like you do) because you earn at least part of your income
consulting with organizations helping them acquire IP resources thru the
complexities of existing ARIN policies.
The only question I would ask is, would you support a proposal from a member of
this community to make the acquisition of IP resources much simpler if it
significantly cut into your income? Would every member who serves do so? It's
an age old question that is always difficult to answer.

Yes, I have done this on a consulting basis for a very long time. I have
repeatedly disclosed that I do so to the AC on a regular basis.
I have checked with both John Curran and Steve Ryan and confirmed that no
general COI exists.
Each time a policy has come up which might benefit one or more of my clients, I
have disclosed this fact and recused myself from the voting if the policy might
have any impact on an active client’s current or pending request that I was
aware of.
I am also the person responsible for Hurricane Electric’s RIR relations and act
as the DMR for some of my clients in the ARIN and APNIC elections.
I do the number resource applications for Hurricane Electric and act as a
senior counselor to others at Hurricane Electric who do resource requests on
behalf of our customers.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to clarify this. I do not believe a COI
exists, but if one comes to light, I will certainly disclose it and take
appropriate action to the best of my ability.
Owen
