[rpd] Last Call for "AFPUB-2016-GEN-001-DRAFT-04 - Internet Number Resources Review by AFRINIC"

[McTim]

Hi Omo,


So "better" in this context means "more efficient usage"?  or "not stockpiling"?

My issue is that it places staff in a position to make a value
judgement about which is a "better" use of resources.

Regards,

McTim
