Well since I am the one that stirred the pot on this...let me give my $0.02.
 
I am guessing that some sort of ownership has been asserted by the Non-Profit Brian formed.  I would say that leasing the address ranges for some nominal cost to offset the administrative costs of "Amateur Radio Digital Communications".  This would serve to support any necessary hardware, software, ect required by ARDC.  As a lease the ownership remains with ARDC and could be revoked for violating the terms of the lease.  Just like an eviction as well as a period of time.  This way people who were assigned addressed 15years ago could not assert ownership.  These are not "ham radio frequencies" so the rules are up to the ARDC. 
 
Just remember a non-profit does not mean no money it just means you must spend it by the end of the year.  Like Richard Stalman says "it is free as in free speech not free as in free beer."
 
Bottom line I just want to seem them used by ham radio operators.  How they are used would need to be set in a policy.

Pretty much impossible since it is not subject to Part 97 at all.  Only the Gents agreements that it be used for Amateur use only.  Using it for something like HSMM-MESH is probably safe since it routes via callsign.  Not 100% but then any system is subject to abouse.

Wow. That's the problem, isn't it?  How to maintain the network for ham radio
use and not waste it.  I'd like to see it used for the public good - advancement
of technology, public service, that sort of thing.

I'd like to require that the netspace hams get is used
for ham radio, not sold, nonprofit, free, etc.  

What else would we require of "clients"?
