[address-policy-wg] Revised 2007-01 moved back to Review Period (Direct Internet Resource Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC)

Hi APWG folks,

this proposal keep being difficult for our processes.  

We got a rebound from the WG chair collective, because they felt that 
there was no explicit consensus for version *2* of the proposal, which had
some signficant changes (inclusion of ERX in the text).

Now this is v3, trying to work out the last wrinkles, and get it through
the process properly, and we got *NO* comments on it.  

"No comments" does not mean "consensus".  It means "nobody is interested,
leave us alone with this".

I think that this is a very important milestone, and it needs good backing
by the community (or if you don't want it, it should be explicitely torn
down).

The main difference v2 -> v3 is that ERX space has been completely taken 
out [because RIPE has no legal basis to enforce anything - we'll come back
to this with a new proposal], and that there is a *new* document that 
describes what to do with existing end-user assignments - which has exactly 
the same intent as v2, but we can't put requirements for existing assignments 
into a "new assignments" documents, so this needed cleaning up.

So - please read the documents, as referenced in Ana's mail below, and then
explicitely voice agreement or disagreement with 2007-01 v3.

thanks,

Gert Doering,
	APWG Chair
