Yes fees are most a RSA thing, but I see no harm to keep the actual
wording as it is and make it loud and clear that organizations that
don't pay the fees are subjected to resources revocation - which is up
to this forum to define - so no one may plead ignorance about it.
What is the problem to keep it as it is ? If the newly proposed text
mentions that ISPs should take care to ensure that their annual renewal
payment is made by their anniversary due date, what's wrong to also
remind them that if that is not fulfilled the resources may be revoked ?
This makes part of the Fair and Impartial Number Resources
Administration principle.
I see no propose in this proposal therefore I do not support it.

Draft Policy ARIN-2020-8: Clarify and Update 4.2.1.2 Annual Renewal Fee
Problem Statement:
The January 2020 Policy Experience Report highlighted that the
existing language in Section 4.2.1.2 "Annual Renewal" references fees.
Fees are not considered a member qualification criteria. Since fees
aren't referenced elsewhere in community policy, the wording was
reviewed by the PEG.
Policy statement:
Given that the Registration Services Agreement (RSA) already contains
language regarding fees, the AC Shepherds recommend to eliminate
4.2.1.2. entirely and add:
2.X Registration Services Agreement (RSA)
Number resources allocated or assigned by ARIN under these policies
are subject to a contractural agreement between ARIN and the resource
holder. Throughout this document, any and all forms of this agreement,
past or future, are simply referred to as the Registration Services
Agreement (RSA).
Comments:
The AC’s understanding is that community policy should not include
language referring to fees, as such language is already present in the
Registration Services Agreement (RSA)
Registration Services has informed us that "Section 4.2.1.2. contains
language detailing fee due dates, encouraging on-time payments, and
mentions potential revocations. It also contains a reference to web
documentation that has evolved significantly since this policy was
implemented, and may continue to do so. Essentially the entire section
is made of language that is already in the Registration Services
Agreement, and is generally fee-focused, making it outside normal
scope for Internet number resource policy."
Timetable for implementation: Immediate
Anything else:
Community input since adopting draft has informed this direction. The
2.X placeholder is used as this seems like it might be foundational
enough to not be 2.17 but the Shepherds would rather not upset current
indexing arbitrarily.
