The only one I've heard arguing heavily in favor of the HD-ratio proposal was a representative for a large international backbone who saw this as an opportunity to compensate for bad internal distribution of assigned address-blocks. I don't think any-body's inability to come up with a decent network design is a reason to accept such changes to the policy. > > And I also have to agree with Gert Doering who said in the address policy > WG that there has been very quiet around this proposal, and that the > reason for this can be that ETNO claims thay "unanimously support this > proposal". Does this mean that ETNO assume they have some form of veto in the RIPE community? I can't see any reason why ETNO's vote should count for more than any other _individual's_ opinion regardless of who they claim to represent. //per -- Per Heldal http://heldal.eml.cc/
