> 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.

Anthony, this was asked and answered… (I remember posting an explanation similar to what is below before)...

There are two similar terms which get conflated here…

Global Policy
Globally Coordinated Policy

The former is an official term and refers to a policy which directs ICANN interaction with the RIRs. Since ICANN is not involved in the issuance of RPKI AS0 ROAs, there’s no use and no meaning to a global policy in this area.

At best, what you are calling for is a Globally Coordinated Policy.

However, Globally Coordinated Policy simply means that each of the 5 RIRs considers and adopts the same (or very similar) policy language and approximately the same time.

There’s really very little difference between adopting the policy individually in each of the 5 RIRs (this has been proposed in at least 4 of them so far) vs. having it adopted as a globally coordinated policy. The outcome is identical and the coordination effort is much simpler if the proposal is simply pushed in each of the 5 regions individually.

Since each RIR would be independently issuing RPKI AS0 ROAs for space in their individual inventories, there’s actually no benefit to coordinating the implementation of the policy. Incremental benefit is achieved as each RIR implements the policy.

Further, even if this were a subject for a global policy, the first step in adopting a global policy is for each RIR to adopt (nearly) identical policy language through their individual PDP. Once all 5 RIRs have come to consensus on the same policy, it is handed over to the NRO-NC (which also serves as the ASO-AC) to bring to the ICANN board for final ratification. So adopting this individual policy proposal would still be the first step in any case.

Hope that clarifies things.

Owen

However, just as people here have said they can request for help. Furthermore, I think the authors can also assist in doing that during their responses to objections cos it will be easier to document that way to show a documented addressing of objections to prove that all has been addressed.
