[AFRINIC-rpd] Commencement of the last call

[Andrew Alston]

Badru, I would oppose these changes in the last call period (Other than the
ratio, which we have always openly stated is a point for further
negotiations and hence I believe that can be changed within the confines of
last call)

We took a policy to the floor for consensus, the consensus was granted, and
the agreement from the floor was that THAT policy  with modifications as
requested on the floor go to last call.

To change the policy to add additional elements would not be what we had
agreed with the community in that room, and that was to table what was put
before them.  We have to act within the policy and within the remit granted
to us by the floor in Zambia, that is how the process is designed and how it
is meant to work.  Further changes to the policy would have to go back to
the floor at a subsequent meeting, and to change the policy and not proceed
to last call and create a delay like that after committing in front of the
community to taking the policy to last call with the changes they requested
would in my view be disingenuous.  If this policy does not pass last call
then we can relook at that then.

I would ask that you, as Chairman of Afrinic, respect the Afrinic process as
defined.

Andrew
