[AFRINIC-rpd] IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment proposal

[Andrew Alston]

Hi Ernest, PDP Members,

I want to clarify something.

In the event of a new policy that conflicts with an older policy, is there a
de-facto state of the newer superseding the older?  

I.E if we implemented this new policy where it conflicts with the current
policies, would it automatically supersede them?

Andrew

AFRINIC currently issues IPv4 PI space directly to end-user organizations
per the policy AFPUB-2006-GEN-001 (that superseded Clause 5.8 of
AFPUB-2005-v4-001).
