[rpd] [Last Call] Draft Policy Proposal - Hierarchical Names for New AS-SETs (AFPUB-2026-ASN-001-DRAFT02)

[Asamkele Menzeleli]

Hello everyone,

I object to this proposal.

I also agree with Nonhlanhla's point regarding mandate laundering. We
should be careful not to confuse policy development with expanding
institutional authority.

Policies should reflect demonstrated operational realities and technical
necessity. They should not become governance mechanisms that gradually
enlarge the registry's role beyond maintaining uniqueness, accurate
records, and operational coordination.

A registry should record reality, not create new layers of governance
through policy.

Regards,
Asamkele Menzeleli
