Hi Anthony,



I think I’ve explained that. Let’s try it with different examples/words.



A global policy makes sense in general if we have to make an action on IANA. For example, instead of providing a /23 IPv6 block for every RIR, as IPv6 space, a few years ago we moved that to /12.



In this case, we may want to have that for publishing RPKI ROAs for the IANA unallocated space which is different that the unallocated space of each RIR. It is a different scope.



Furthermore, a global policy requires that in ALL the 5 RIRs, the same text (exact same words, not even a single “,” of difference) reach consensus in all the RIRs. This will take much longer, and if a single RIR don’t like it, nothing is done.



In this case, every RIR that passes it provides a 20% of value. It is clear that is better to have a 40% (because 20% is already there as this policy passed already in APNIC), or even 60% (if it passes as well in LACNIC or RIPE, if it passes in both will be already 80%), than just 20%, right?



Note that my % figures are just one example, and assuming a similar sharing of IPv4 and IPv6 unallocated space in different RIRs. Actually if you look at AFRINIC space, it has more unallocated IPv4 space than any other RIR, and much more unallocated IPv6 space than any other RIR, so the % of “benefit” is even bigger.



If we also want a global policy for the IANA unallocated, space, that’s a possibility, but it is a different “coverage”. If this policy passes in all the 5 RIR, then it will be clear that possibly, it makes sense to push for that one as well.



Regards,

Jordi

Hello Nishal Goburdhan,



I quite support the proposition to track views shared by members of the community, and responses provided by the Author(s) and community on every policy proposed.

This will go a long way in making decision making easier for the Co-Chairs, Afrinioc staff and the community at large. It introduces more transparency. That way, strong/weak/irrelevant or passive suggestions and objections can be followed up and fully considered and/or addressed.

I suggest a platform for this should be set aside and updated regularly. This will shrink repetitions and save the community valuable time. We all have different schedules, and everyone can not invest the minimum time required to revisit every comment posted in the rpd mailing list.



With respect to the above, a typical example would be my query on this RPKI ROAs for Unallocated and Unassigned AFRINIC Address Space policy proposal, a few of my inquiries were addressed, however, I questioned the effectiveness of having such policy on a regional scale where the true benefit can only be enjoyed if implemented as a global policy.

I ask again, why not push for a Global policy proposal for RPKI ROAs for Unallocated and Unassigned resources? If I didn't miss the response to that, then it still hasn't been addressed.



Regards,



Ant'

I support Pascal on this.

A detailed list of objections will help the community have better understanding of the discussions.

considering that the co-chairs MUST evaluate objections to gauge if there is consensus or not, which, means that they MUST obviously read and decide if these are substantive objections, or not, i don?t see why the co-chairs - working with afrinic?s policy development officer - can not produce a report highlighting these contentious issues.

i do not think that the co-chairs should be asked to map these to solutions; that is not their role.

i would be sceptical of any author producing a report, claiming to address all objections.
