...no! it allows the BoD to *submit* a DPP
(not to *ratify*), under critical circonstances.

It makes a huge difference, for me :-/

...yes! now, the BoD has also the right to act,
promptly in case of crisis. The BoD becomes
more accountable, with such additional freedom.
The BoD is allowed to varying the process in
time of crisis. They had two alternatives...they
did it, imho.

It's also worth noting that PDP prevail for Policy
Development.

...it remains a DPP submitted by the BoD.
If adopted by the PDWG, it has to be ratified
by the BoD, then implemented by the Staff
as a new policy and finally added to the CPM.

Right now, i don't see the need for an Inter RIR
transfer policy...too risky! as an IPv4 cost $30;
according to nra.help :'-( adding that it's now a
*"valuable asset" owned by resource holders*.

...things have changed since RFG shared the
results of his valuable researchs.

Since then, it appears that AfriNIC has recovered
a number of IPv4 blocks...part of the IPv4 which  have been, sadly,
misappropriated are still on the
pipe...and also, it's possible to add a maximum
of two /11 and two /12 to the available IPv4
regional pool soon...

...right now, the problem to solve seems to be:

~°~
How to protect the INRs assigned to AfriNIC
to support the growth of its service region?
 ~°~

Shalom,
