[rpd] Community Feedback

[Wijdane Goubi]

Hello,

I totally do not understand how defending oneself while being accused of
some serious accusations can be seen as threats. Additionally, the
co-chairs have the total right to prevent unjustified personal attacks
through the use of a sufficient level of counteracting warnings.

Regarding what type of job the co-chairs have, YES it is voluntary, whether
we like it or not, and they are not getting enough credits for what they
do. Moreover, just because the co-chairs decisions do not align with some
people’s interests does not mean that their task isn’t held in a high
esteem.

Admittedly, the CPM seems to be simple on its face, but it raises many
questions when applied to actual situations, such as the section 3.5 which
states that “The recall committee shall investigate the circumstances of
the justification for the recall and determine the outcome”, in this case
we can’t decide what exactly was meant by the outcome and we can’t
determine whether it means the co-chairs should be removed or if the
request should move forward.

As for the « AFRINIC Number Resources Transfer Policy », trying to prove a
point by comparing two incomparable situations is neither functional nor
fits in this context. The last draft policy proposal had another competing
proposal that was already in the last call, in addition, the co-chairs were
waiting for the analysis/advice on how to handle and proceed with the
proposal, that being said, they were not purposely delaying the procedure.
Whereas, this ongoing recall besides the fact of it being problematic and
based ,as mentioned so many times, on biased and subjective opinions, its
proponents are ,for the most part, people who have aggressively opposed the
last policy proposal.

Cheers,
Wijdane.
