(I tried do search trough the archives and found this only deep within the 2013-03 discussion.) The ASO Address Council was made aware of - and had a short discussion with one of the author on - the topic of the proposed update to RFC 2050. The current version of the draft is at http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-housley-rfc2050bis-01.txt Below is the messages I have found on the topic on the ARIN ppml which explains the background of the work in progress. Personally I think this is a long overdue cleanup of RFC2050 - and the Address Policy working-group should perhaps spend some time on follwing the development of the document to get the workings right.
