[rpd] A review of AFRINIC Policy Development Process

[Grégoire EHOUMI]

Hi Alain and PDWG,

Thanks for sharing this excellent analysis.

Even if this is not a policy proposal, your review highlights several important lessons from the recent governance crisis.

Some good thoughts which indicate the need to reinvent the PDP beyond the recent attempts which were more about implementation clarifications, cochairs elections, appeals management..

We need a resilient PDP in phase with a resilient regional Internet Number registry, Within the new RIR governance framework. 

Best regards,
Grégoire
