13. Any Other Business

The Chair called for any other business.

Discussion of Non-Connected Network /ULA. DF stated that related to the reworking of the v6 assignment section, he had started a thread regarding this topic on PPML, and ULA proposals were mentioned. He sent an active draft to the PPML today. The question of the IETF handling this issue arose. Discussion ensued with members stating their opinions on who would be the appropriate body to manage v6 space for non-connected networks/ULAs. MA, who attends all IETF meetings on behalf of ARIN as a representative of the AC, stated that at the last several IETF meetings, this issue has not had any support. She stated the IETF feels the cons are too damaging, and that it is too early to address the issue.

The Chair requested the discussion be continued on AC’s mailing list, if desired.

ITU Meeting Update. DA and the President recently attended the ITU meeting in Geneva, and provided an overview. The President stated he would also draft a message to the Community on his findings.
