> Dear PDWG Community,

> We thank you for your interaction following the AFRINIC-27 meetings in Lagos,

> than personal attacks.

> Following the AFRINIC Policy Development Process as outlined in Article 3.0
> of
> http://www.afrinic.net/en/library/policies/1829-afrinic-consolidated-policy-manual
> , the proposal IPv4 Soft Landing Bis was moved to Last Call period for
> further input from the community before being passed on for ratification by
> the AFRINIC board or returned to the mailing list.

> For avoidance of doubt, please see portions below. Emphasis added for the
> purpose of explanation. 3.4.2 Public Policy Meeting

> The agenda of the meeting shall be announced on the Resource Policy
> Discussion mailing list at least two weeks prior to the meeting. No change
> can be made to a draft policy within one week of the meeting. This is so
> that a stable version of the draft policy can be considered at the meeting.
> * The Chair(s) determine(s) whether rough consensus has been achieved during
> the Public Policy Meeting.*

> The Chair(s) shall publish the minutes of proceedings of the Public Policy
> Meeting not later than three weeks after the meeting. 3.4.3 Last Call

> The proposal draft discussed at the meeting was published on this mailing
> list on October 1, 2017. Over an 8-week period, that document received one
> comment (and a +1) stating that the IPv6 reserve be restricted only to new
> members.

> We duly observed previous comments from those that oppose soft landing and
> would rather remove restrictions. This concern is addressed by the fact that
> the IP addresses under discussion were in fact handed to AFRINIC in 2011
> under a global policy which equally redistributed the remaining IPv4 pool
> amongst RIRs (effectively replacing the “on-demand” policy - despite the
> fact that other RIRs may have had greater need and demand at that time).
> Refer to Section 3 (Rationale) of
> http://www.afrinic.net/library/135-global-policy-for-the-allocation-of-the-remaining-ipv4-address-space

> While minutes of the meeting are yet to be published, the community may

> Complete meeting video playlist is at https://meeting.afrinic.net/afrinic-27/

> The policy proposal IPv4 Soft-Landing Bis remains in last call period as
> earlier announced.

> Thank you for your active participation as we look forward to receiving your
> comments and suggestions on the substance of the policy proposal under
> discussion.
