Policy Development Process
APNIC's policies are developed by the membership and broader Internet community. The major media for policy development are the face-to-face Open Policy Meetings, which are held twice each year, and mailing list discussions.
APNIC's policy development process is:
- Open
- Anyone can propose policies.
- Everyone can discuss policy proposals.
- Transparent
- APNIC publicly documents all policy discussions and decisions.
- Bottom-up
- The community drives policy development.
APNIC documents all policy discussions and decisions to provide complete transparency of the policy development process.
