Actually if ARIN doesn’t pull the resources, after notification and a grace period to
get them fixed, then what is the point in writing policy requiring that they be up to
date and working?  There needs to be checks and balances for systems to work.  The only
thing is what should the grace period be?

Scott, you might want to read "Policy Development Process (PDP)”

exactly what John means by “If the community developed a policy”. 

You might also want to join the Public Policy Mailing List, 
arin-ppml () arin net, to discuss.  Scintillating discourse, I assure you.

Yes - I am aware of how ARIN functions, its mandate, its governance, etc.

What I have been saying is that, if ARIN did something so brazen as to revoke Amazon's resources because of some 
bounced PoC emails, the impact would be *dramatic* and likely lead to the end of ARIN. Just think about this for a 
minute. :) Obviously this will not happen because ARIN is so righteously competent. :)

I wasn't criticizing ARIN (or anybody) I was just answering a hypothetical.
