> ·         The proposal corrects and aligns recent changes to IPv6 PI
> policy with IPv6 PA policy, especially on the need for issued IPv6 PA space
> to be announced within 12 months of receiving it. The current need to
> assign a /48 to a PoP (6.5.4.2) is also removed

> •       The proposal makes it mandatory for AFRINIC to include with each
> resource registration a contact where network abuse from users of those
> resources will be reported.
>
> •       Proposed whois DB attribute (abuse-c) – to be used to publish
> abuse public contact information
>
> •       There’s also a process to ensure that abuse report must be
> received by the recipient, and that contacts are validated by AFRINIC

>
> The proposal is a complete revision of the current Policy Development
> Process (CPM 3.0). Key highlights are:
>
> •       Provides for different and distinct phases for a policy
> proposal’s cycle through the PDP - from adoption through the last call to
> Board ratification.
>
> •       Clarifies the consensus process around major and minor objections
>
> •       Clarifies responsibilities of Chairs of the working group and
> their role on how to determine the presence (or lack) of consensus.

> The purpose of this proposal is to restrict the propagation of BGP

> •       AFRINIC to create ROAs with origin AS0 (zero) for all unissued
> address space.
>
> •       For space to be issued, ROAs with origin AS0 will have to be

>
> https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2019-v4-003-d1#proposal
>
> *Back to list for further discussion and refinement*
>
> The proposal did not reach consensus as some objections was raised such as
> the proposed No need basis
>
> •       Allows for transfers of IPv4 resources (only) between AFRINIC and
> other regions.
>
> •       No limit and conditions on resource size and frequency of
> transfers, as long as both parties mutually agree.
>
> •       No needs assessment by AFRINIC on the recipient.
>
> •       Legacy resources retain legacy resource status after transfer.
>
>
>
> *7.       **M&A Resource Transfers (Co-Chairs Decision: No Consensus)*
>
> https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2019-gen-004-d1#proposal
>
> *Back to list for further discussion and refinement*
>
> This proposal has not reached a consensus because of concerns about the
> necessity of this proposal has not been addressed. There are voices that
> the current system works well and that this proposal is pointless without
> an Inter RIR transfer policy. These remain unaddressed.
>
> ·         Because AFRINIC does not currently have a policy for transfers
> of resources as a result of M&A (Mergers and Acquisitions between
> companies), this proposal attempts to establish such a mechanism for such
> cases.
>
> •       Only applicable to Intra-RIR cases (companies under the AFRINIC
> service region).
>
> •       Replaces the current “procedure document defined by staff” as
> this is not optimal and falls totally outside community control.
>
>

> *8.       **IPv4 Inter-RIR Resource Transfers (Comprehensive Scope)
> ((Co-Chairs Decision: No Consensus)*
>
> https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2019-ipv4-002-d3#proposal
>
> *Back to list for further discussion and refinement*
>
> This proposal has not reached consensus. The proposal puts in place a
> mechanism to transfer IPv4 and (some ASN) resources between AFRINIC and
> other RIRs, as well as between AFRINIC members/entities.
>
> •       A transfer source can only receive additional resources after 24
> months of the previous transfer
>
> •       A resource can only be transferred after 12 months after issue.
>
> •       IPv4 legacy resources lose that status after transfer.
>
> •       Outgoing transfers cease if for 6 months, outgoing resources are
> more than incoming resources.
>
>
>
> *9.       **Impact Analysis is Mandatory (Co-Chairs Decision: No
> Consensus)*
>
> https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2019-gen-005-d1#proposal
>
> *Back to list for further discussion and refinement*
>
> This proposal has not reached a consensus because of concerns about the
> necessity and practicality of this proposal have not been addressed.
>
> •       Modifies CPM 3.0 to make staff impact assessments of new
> proposals mandatory, along with other minor changes.
>
> •       Introduces new timelines for submission of draft proposals
>
> •       Requires each new draft proposal to have a staff analysis 4 weeks
> after it’s received
>
> •       If AFRINIC needs more time, the justification to be provided to
> community
>

> *10.    **Internet Number Resources review by AFRINIC draft8 (Co-Chairs
> Decision: No Consensus )*
>
> https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2016-gen-001-d8#proposal
>
> This proposal has not reached consensus after many iterations spanning
> over 8 iterations spanning over 3 years (from May 2016).
>
> The proposal sets a framework for AFRINIC to conduct reviews/audits of
> resource utilization by members (to ensure efficient and appropriate use).
>
> •       Audits can be random or selected (by AFRINIC) or reported (by
> whistle-blower).
>
> •       Resources not complying are recovered and can be reallocated.
>
>
>
> *The Co-chairs are considering dropping this policy entirely because it
> has been around for some time without achieving consensus. It is also
> noticed that the authors failed to attempt to address a lot of concerns. *
>
> *   Co-chairs have *spent a lot of time on this proposal (over the last 1
> month) reviewing comments and responses from previous meetings and believe
> that the authors did not address or attempt to address most of the major
> issues raised in the latest version. The CPM allows us to vary the process
> in the best interest of the community hence we shall work with the authors
> of this proposal in the coming months to see if there can be a way forward
> on this proposal. A decision shall be made based on this before the next
> policy meeting to avoid wasting the limited and precious time during the
> policy meeting. A proposal cannot continue to have an infinite loop hence
> the need to vary the process.

> *11.    **Proposal: AFRINIC Number Resources Transfer Policy (Co-Chairs
> Decision: No Consensus)*
>
> https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2019-gen-002-d2#proposal
>
> *Back to list for further discussion and refinement*
>
> This proposal has not reached consensus. Concerns regarding the unclear
> wording about the assignment and the excessive amount of need for AFRINIC's
> approval have not been addressed.
>
> •       Allows for transfers of IPv4 and ASN resources (only) between
> AFRINIC and other regions.
>
> •       The recipient must demonstrate the need for the resources.
>
> •       Legacy resources once transferred will lose that status and fall
> under RSA.
>
> •       Reserved resources cannot be transferred.
>
>
>
> *12.    **Chairs Elections Process (Co-Chairs Decision: No Consensus)*
>
> https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2019-gen-007-d1#proposal
>
> *Back to list for further discussion and refinement*
>
> This proposal has not reached consensus. Concerns on e-voting and the
> criteria of chair candidate have not been addressed. The policy was not
> supported by anyone during the Public Policy meeting
>
> •       The proposal is an  effort to improve the process for
> election/selection of Policy Development Working Group (PDWG) co-chairs.
>
> •       Addresses conflict of interest issues.
>
> •       Restrictions for co-chairs to be from different countries.
>
> •       Co-Chairs must represent AFRINIC members or be nominated by
> AFRINIC members.
>
> •       Must have been active on rpd at afrinic.net list for at least 6
> months.
>
> •       Must present planned achievements
