Outside of needing more details and examples, BCP38 could use more
advertising.

The best option, if they would accept it, is to have all RIRs mention
BCP38 as well as require that mention of BCP38 be included in all IP
justification requests to customers (so that those who receive
netblocks from their ISPs are also aware of it).

For ARIN, at least, having it mentioned in the attestation process
wouldn't be a bad idea. At least someone of management would be aware
of it.

The only issue is see concerning the RIRs is that they may object to
it being out of scope to their duties. However, informing people of
something is not requiring implementation of something. On the other
hand, we know that there are a great number of networks that don't
participate with the community at large and may have no idea about
BCP38 and why it is important.
