In light of the recent theft from amateur radio, I cannot continue to be part of ARDC. I was a technical committee member for several years, at least since 2014 or so, and while the TAC members wished to accomplish much, not much happened.
I will give credit for reverse DNS as we worked to get that delegated to BGP operators properly, and my allocation at 44.98.254.0/24 was the first subnet to have it working. I've recently asked about RPKI, DNSSEC, and even made some noise regarding SWIP.
In every talk I've given I've mentioned the resource amateur radio has in 44/8 and how very special it is. Protect the IP space and use it, just as get on and use the bands to protect them.
Understand this is likely 50M+ USD for this space paid to ARDC, and has exposed 44net to ARIN control. RDNS seems to have been broken as well.
I call for a full public accounting of these monies, and outside public audit of ARDC. Brian Kantor must resign and we must demand a clear ethics policy with self-inurement and cross dealing between organizations prohibited.

Sorry to see you go. We're going to need a diverse group of people to help find the most interesting and worthwhile projects to support.
73, Phil
where do we find the minutes of the meetings that occurred for ARDC in the past 1.5 years?
Dan.

Does anyone know how the ARDC plans to accomplish this? Diversity, particularly geographic diversity should be considered important for any committee established to make grants
Based on the communication to date. I'm not convinced that even ARDC has a clue how this will be done.
Personally, I feel like the plan to sell the space was made and executed before any thought of how to deal with the results of it were even considered. I've worked with a number of projects outside of tech where there was a sudden windfall cash injection but no plan in place at the time. Every one of those has had less than stellar results and value from the cash.
