I question the use of the word “contractural” vs “contractual” here - per the OED, “contractural” has two definitions, one of which is medical, the other being “another term for ‘contractual’”*. So while the proposed language is technically correct, I feel that I will not be the first or the last person to think this might be a typo. I'd recommend changing that word, but otherwise support as written.
Thanks, -Chris * See https://www.google.com/search?q=contractural - Google's definition results are provided by Oxford Languages. > On Apr 20, 2021, at 11:44 AM, ARIN <i...@arin.net> wrote: > > On 15 April 2021, the ARIN Advisory Council (AC) sent the following > Recommended Draft Policy to Last Call: > > * ARIN-2020-8: Clarify and Update 4.2.1.2 Annual Renewal Fee > > Feedback is encouraged during the Last Call period.
