Dear Colleagues,
APNIC policies are determined by an open, established, and bottom-up
consensus Policy Development Process (PDP). Anybody can propose a policy
change, participate in the discussion of proposed changes, and express
their support or objection for any proposal.
This PDP begins when somebody submits a Policy Proposal, or a problem
statement to the APNIC Policy SIG Chairs. Once considered and accepted
by the SIG Chairs, the proposal must be posted to Policy SIG mailing
list at least four weeks before the APNIC 38 Policy SIG meeting in
Brisbane, Australia on Thursday, 18 September 2014.
To be considered for consensus at the APNIC 38 OPM, policy proposals
must be submitted by Friday 8 August 2014.
How to submit your Policy Proposal
-------------------------------------------------
There are two ways to submit a policy proposal to the Policy SIG Chairs:
1. Use the online form at:
If you are unsure of the solution to your policy issue, whether your
policy idea has merit, or if it is covered by existing policy, you are
encouraged to complete only the Problem Statement part of your proposal.
The community can then assist in developing the best solution.
