"Principally outside" might be a bit strong, but clearly "outside" with little or no limits on the quantity of resources used outside the region. > The first attempts at policy in this area specified that parties had > to be operating within the region to receive resources and such resources > would > be for use in the region, but that did not gain support.

I think everyone agrees entities getting resources from ARIN need a nexus with the ARIN region, a legal presence and operations within the region, but it's been difficult to get consensus quantifying how much or how little nexus is necessary, beyond simply having one. Put another way, I don't think anyone thinks entities with no legal presence or operations within the ARIN region should be getting resources from ARIN. But consensus on limits or requirements beyond that has been difficult. > FYI, > /John > > John Curran > President and CEO > ARIN -- =============================================== David Farmer Email: far...@umn.edu Office of Information Technology University of Minnesota 2218 University Ave SE Phone: +1-612-626-0815 Minneapolis, MN 55414-3029 Cell: +1-612-812-9952 =============================================== _______________________________________________ PPML You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List (ARIN-PPML@arin.net).
