<div>Thanks for your response.</div>
<div>Speaking from version 02 to version 04, It sounds like

<div>Latest is for the Afrinic legal councel to provide

</span>> But, In the one of last public discussion of a
policy, you said publicly if there wis a consensus, you
would advise the board not to ratify. Would that be the case
if today it was the case?<br>
<br>
That public comment was on an earlier draft (draft-02). The
current draft (draft-04) contains fewer legal risks to the
organisation, but still contains legal risks. I urge the
authors of the proposal to produce a revised draft that
addresses all the objections, including the legal risks that
were identified.<br>
