Indeed, thank you Joe, from an OARC PoV the text looks pretty good to
me. My only thoughts are to add some kind of hold-harmless disclaimer to
avoid OARC being made liable for any adverse consequences of such prefix
announcements. If folks think that's reasonable I can check in with our
lawyers for wording.

I've added something for that and a bit of entity boilerplate as
suggestions.

We'd obviously all like to live in a world where such an LoA is not
needed. It's entirely possible that just posting this letter as
boiler-plate that can be referred to on the as112.net site will be
sufficient for many in itself. However, if folks would like a copy of
the letter signed by OARC sent to any upstreams/peers/IXPs, please
contact us via <admin at dns-oarc.net> and we'll be happy to oblige.

Some volunteer help on this kind of housekeeping work would be most
welcome :)
