Dear Jordi,
Thanks for your response !
...that is why i mentioned the CPM's editor alongside with the DPP's
editor. Normally, this 
part is not concerning me as a reviewer. So, if DPP's editors start to
use the *Imperative Mode* 
when it's necessary to give clear instructions to the CPM's editor for
renumbering purpose for 
example ; i think that using 'Imperative Mode' could add more
clarification in the communication 
between editors (CPM's and DPP). However, i apologize for have misused
to term 'syntax' to 
speak about the 'Imperative Mode'.

:'-( Jordi, by this comment you are presumably confirming that the

*Imperative Mode* (not really 
a particular *syntax*) i'm proposing (that all the DPP's (Draft Policy
Proposal) editor start to use) 
works well ;-) 

...something more important for all those (few) who care to this policy
thing, is the ease it can be 
for new comers to quickly understand what is happening in PDWG. And it's
definitely not about 
simple words or syntax (misused term) but it's about the *semantic* (not
misused term). Why ? 
simply because me as new active member (and i guess : any member you
include) of this policy 
community, when you say «[...]section removed and following text
renumbered[...]» it means that : 
*you* (DPP's editor) have *already* removed the section (not sure to be
true, because you are not 
the CPM' editor) and *you* have already renumbered (this is totally
false because you are not the 
CPM editor).

This answer helps me to fix something in my knowledge of IP
distribution, and i am grateful ! 

...to the others, before i didn't understand the real difference between
PI and PA (perhaps not exactly that, but i failed to see that as IXPs
are not *Provider* (in this context) or *LIR*, they are not eligible to
this policy and DPP, but to an other one (CPM section 6.8) ; due to
theirs status of non LIR, then 'Provider Independent'.

Remember : i'm still open to learn, then if someone want to take me,
even, as intern in his IXP, i'll  
certainly learn more about IXPs ;-)

Thanks.

Shalom,
