To ensure that all interested and concerned parties have the opportunity to
comment, a thirty (30) day comment period is now open. The comment period
will close at midnight UTC, 22 October, 2003.
The APNIC Executive Council will consider the comments as they are received
and intends to make a decision whether to adopt these documents following
this comment period. If these documents are adopted by all the RIR Boards,
it is the present intention to formally pass the open letter to ICANN on 24
October. On the same date the Boards of the RIRs currently intend to direct
their CEOs to sign the MoU
concerning the establishment of the Number Resource Organization.
The RIRs welcome feedback from the Internet addressing community on the
contents of these documents. All comments should be addressed to the public
mailing list:
