Hello Owen
That makes me think of another option I haven’t listed.
We could take the structure outlined in option 4 and put them all in one
document. That way we would have all the definitions, goals, and principles
information at the beginning of the document and then have three sections IPv4,
IPv6, and ASNs.
One of the concerns with option 2 was the way Section 6 swaps back and forth
between the three resource types.
So I present Option 5 structure below. It would achieve the goal of one policy
document with all its advantages, but keep the various resource policy criteria
quite distinct.
-------------------------------
OPTION 5: One Policy Document
-------------------------------
Section 1: Policy Environment
-----------------------------
1.1. Introduction
Scope of Policy
Distribution Hierarchy
1.2. Definitions
All definitions
1.3. Policy framework
Goals & Principles

Validity, renewal, recovery
1.5. Resource Management
APNIC pool management
Historical resources
LIR responsibilities
1.6. General requirements for requests
1.7. Resource Transfers
Intra-Regional transfers IPv4 & ASNs
Inter-RIR transfers IPv4 & ASNs
Historical resources
Mergers, acquisitions
1.8. Experimental allocations
Section 2: IPv4 Policy
----------------------
2.1. IPv4 Resource requests
Criteria for initial IPv4 delegations
Criteria for subsequent IPv4 delegations
2.2. Resource Transfers
Intra-Regional IPv4 transfers
Inter-RIR IPv4 transfers
Historical resources
Mergers, acquisitions
Section 3: IPv6 Policy
----------------------
3.1. IPv6 Resource requests
Criteria for initial IPv6 delegations
Criteria for subsequent IPv6 allocations
Criteria for initial IPv6 assignments
Criteria for subsequent IPv6 assignments
3.2. Resource Transfers
Mergers, acquisitions
3.3. Appendix A : HD-Ratio
Section 4: ASN Policy
---------------------
4.1. ASN Resource requests
Criteria for ASN delegations
4.2. Resource Transfers

I support option 2.
It is hard enough trying to follow the regional policy differences as an
international network.
At least being able to find each regions policies in a single document would be
a monumental
improvement.

Dear Colleagues
Many of you may recall that the APNIC Secretariat has been working
toward a restructure of the policy documents that govern the management
of resources in the region.
Last March, I circulated a draft document that merged all seven policy
documents into one policy manual. The email containing the links to
those drafts is available here:
http://mailman.apnic.net/mailing-lists/sig-policy/archive/2013/03/msg00002.html
Since then I have had some feedback that some may find a different
approach easier. Accordingly, I have identified below, a series of four
options. These range from no change - maintain the seven separate
documents, to keeping three or four documents.
To give a sense of what this might look like, I've pasted a likely Table
of Contents for each policy according to the structure of each option.
I can discuss this in more detail at APNIC 37, but the idea is to either
put all policies together in one policy manual, or to maintain separate
IPv4, IPv6, and AS number documents.
I look forward to feedback and opinions from community members, either
on this list, or at the meeting.
Kind Regards,
Adam
