Marla,
From a strategic point of view I agree that we should move to a one
policy for everyone model.
However, every time we try all-encompassing strategic changes, people
say they are too big of a change all at once, and tell us to break them
up. When we brake them up into manageable size chunks, the individual
changes don't get support because people don't want to see half-measures
they want strategic level changes.
This is a catch 22. We need to find a way to move forward. How would you
suggest we do that?
Thanks.

I don't support this based on what I see as a missed opportunity. This policy calls
attention to the fact that ARIN should consider removing any difference in policy between
End Users and ISPs. I agree this proposal has valid case use scenarios, however it just
leaves me thinking only one "class" is needed and not two. One policy for all.

Draft Policy ARIN-2015-8
Reassignment records for IPv4 End-Users
Date: 25 August 2015
Problem statement:
End-User Organizations do not have the ability to create reassignment records
in the number resource database.
Reassignment records can be used for a number of different functions which
could benefit the overall desire to increase database accuracy by allowing
organizations to add additional details in the database.
The following reasons have been noted as positive reasons to allow the creation
of additional records.
- Geolocation (allows an organization to specify a different location within
the database which is used by organizations creating geo-location by IP address
databases)
- Subsidiary reassignment (allows an organization to note that a portion of
their netblock is in use by a different subsidiary entity)
- Assignment to contracted parties (some organizations have contracts with
other organizations which are operating networks under agreements with the
registrant, this allows the top-level organizations to accurately specify the
organization operating the network in the number resource database)
- More specific contact information (some organizations operate large networks
which don't necessarily have the same technical or abuse contact information)
Policy statement:
Create new section 4.3.x
End-user organizations which have an active registration services agreement
shall be permitted to create reassignment records in the number resource
database. Organizations shall use the guidelines outlined in section 4.2.3 when
creating reassignment records.
Comments:
a. Timetable for implementation: immediately b. Anything else:
It is noted by the author of this policy proposal that one of the distinctions
in the service between ISPs and End-Users has been the ability for an
organization to create reassignment records.
This policy proposal stretches across responsibilities areas as it impacts
number policy, ARIN operational practice, and fees.
Below we have noted the three areas and the different responsibilities:
A) Providing reassignment support for end-user assignments, for those who wish
to use it
This is an ARIN Service issue - could be an suggestion/consultation process, so
long as any implied additional workload/cost can be accommodated in budget and
the community supports
B) New requirement on end-users to provide reassignment information in certain
circumstances so that ARIN will treat their usage assertion credibly
This is a policy issue. These requirements should be vetted through the policy
development process.
C) Fee Implications of ISPs moving to end-user category
This is Board issue, but first requires a community discussion or consultation
to be held to solicit community input on desired outcome.
