criteria for an initial allocation are amended;

by using a 'public' attribute in the APNIC Whois Database.

This draft is intended to implement the consensus decisions reached at
the following meetings:

in relation to proposal prop-007-v001.
- APNIC 17 (endorsed by the Executive Council on 14 May 2004) in
relation to proposal prop-014-v001.
