<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Equal footing can be quite subjective depending on what is being considered . Is Africa on an equal footing with the other 4 RIRs in regards to the resource allocated? Probably not in some . This is merely an invitation to other RIRs
,the communities in those regions can either accept it or reject it, which would then fulfil the last two concerns - mutual respect and policies.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">If the AfriNIC community wants to open the door for one-way transfers from any other region, then that is totally fine as far as any other community's policies are concerned.<o:p></o:p></p>
