Bill,
I am strongly opposed to enforcing the License trustee as the POC for 44net
matters. For example, in my club, our president is also our trustee, but
does not have the interest or technical knowledge to handle 44net matters.
In the past and present, I have been the POC for 44net matters, as I lead
the development of our infrastructure and networks. Many other platforms
enforce that our trustee must be the POC, which causes me tons of headaches
and unnecessary delays, and inconveniences the trustee.
At the very most, using QRZ as an example since ARDC has a track record of
using them for verification, I would suggest sending an email to the QRZ
email address asking to verify that the named person is authorized to act
on behalf of the club with respect to 44net. From that point on, the named
person should become the POC for the club. In my case, our club email
address is a shared mailbox between all of the officers, so handling such a
verification measure would be easy.
I appreciate any other input.

Thanks Dan,
You've expressed my concern extremely well. I suspect there are many
clubs, and will be many more that will desire a 44net allocation /
callsign.ampr.org subdomain. Once suggestion, since club callsigns are
managed by a club trustee, should that be the designated POC for these
relationships?

* We are in fact coming out with a policy re: subdomains, and it will
likely be as described in the email sent out earlier this week.
In this case,
I'd like to reiterate my request that this policy
formally take into account non-individual organizations such as
amateur radio clubs. These organizations can be, and often are,
assigned call signs by various licensing authorities (for example, the
Boston Amateur Radio Club, BARC, has been assigned W1BOS in the US by
the FCC:
https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSearch/license.jsp?licKey=781017).
And while certain individuals may be designated
by those organizations
to liaise with e.g. ARDC for requesting IP address allocations an so
on, the organizations themselves are not individuals, and right now
there's a gap in the policy and infrastructure spaces for how such
things are handled. I know this was not an envisioned use case, but it
_is_ something that is going to come up.
