[rpd] AFRINIC Policy Compliance Dashboard ID AFPUB-2026-GEN-002-DRAFT01.

[jordi.palet at consulintel.es]

Hi all,

Quick comments:
1) Note that this proposal was submitted many years ago and reached consensus, finally was not ratified because the Board was understanding that according to the impact analysis, it was enchroaching some of their functions.
2) The authors (not just me), don’t believe this is the case. Also the community didn’t understood that was the case, as it reached consensus despite the impact analysis.
3) In any case, the authors decided to do a “cut-down” version, removing all the aspects that AFRINIC consider as “encroaching”.
4) Another comment I’ve is that in my opinion, this proposal should have kept the original ID. According to 3.4.1 of the CPM:
“A draft policy expires after one calendar year unless it is approved by the AFRINIC Board of Directors as a policy. The timeout period is restarted when the draft policy is replaced by a more recent version of the proposal. “

So even if it expired due to the no-ratifications, which is debatable because we “paused” all the timing for all the proposals during the time of “no-board”, as we are sending a new version, the timing is restarted, but the ID should be the same. I think this is important to ensure that all the participants in the list and meeting can have a “unified” view of the proposal and all the versions, compare them, etc., etc.

I think point 4 needs some clarification, because we may have discrepancy on how different folks interpret this specific point of the PDP, which is not good.

Regards,
Jordi
