[rpd] IPv4 Soft Landing BIS

[ALI Hadji Mmadi]

Hi Owen,
>>...Which is a bad-faith mutation of what was agreed in public during the
PDWG meeting in Mauritius.

Let me ask you to avoid such remarks when divergenses of ideas emerge.
On the other hand, it is also said somewhere that: If someone speaks a
great deal at the moment when one wants to reach a conclusion that is mean
this boy is not in agreement with what he is saying and what he thinks.

In Mauritius no one has forced anyone to withdraw or maintain his proposal.
If those who have withdrawn his proposal that is done with a good-faith, so
keep silent or simply help with the improvement of the draft on the list.

>>... and in line with the comments made by the CEO (He said  as a CEO of
AfriNIC or in his personnel capacity (Alan)? reply)
So grace, do not create an unnecessary elephant fight.

>>...going forward
I'm agree with you
Thanks.
