That sounds good in principle, Michael, but the reality is that none of the fora you suggested provide for an interactive discussion amongst the broader community. While it’s true that the general-members list reached the electorate, the impact of the AC is felt not only by the electorate, but also by the broader community. The impact of ARIN’s elections, registration services agreement, Board of Trustee elections, etc. are also all topics that could affect the broader community – so that property (in and of itself) is not a particularly compelling argument for mandate of the use of ppml. There are tradeoffs in having such discussions here on ppml (e.g., not everyone here may necessarily want to be buried in discussion of ARIN election processes) versus the general-member mailing list (where discussion of such minutiae might cause drop in general members interest or participation), so this needs to be carefully considered by the community. We will hold an appropriate consultation in the future to discuss this issue and so that the merits of various approaches can be considered. In the interim, suggestions for the improvements to the ARIN election process should be directed to the ARIN ACSP <https://www.arin.net/participate/community/acsp/> Thanks! /John John Curran President and CEO American Registry for Internet Numbers
