[AFRINIC-rpd] Commencement of the last call

[Andrew Alston]

Maye, 

I wonder if we can move forward by thinking about future of our people
specially academic institutions and provide a policy that will not focus on
V4 space and providing V4 addresses

> (because of i) impact on short term afrinic's revenues;

Asked and answered in previous emails that address the fact that this policy
could actually potentially INCREASE the amount of short term revenue, see
previous financial analysis provided by myself which as of yet no one has
directly responded to or disputed.

 > ii) his focus on south region without any provision of equity;

Asked, answered, and disputed by myself, Mark Elkins, Guy Halse and others
showing very clearly that this policy benefits regions with less space
rather than the already empowered and has FAR more benefit to the academic
institutions that have no space than those who already have it.

 > iii) his tends to introduce an exception on critical resources management
only in africa).

I do not understand this statement at all.

> I would like to see policies and actions which will allow our academies to act
as first mover and catalyst for IPv6 adoption in our region.

This policy addresses that by forcing academia to adopt Ipv6 plans in order
to qualify under this policy.
