Ok
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now that we are getting dialogue. I’m hearing that we want a review on the policy in place ???</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Would an ammendment of the new policy to cater for those objecting be a better use of resources??<br>

</div>
Well lets not confuse silence with agreement and seeing the unpleasant sentiments...one cant really blame some for keeping quiet.<br class="">
<br class="">
</div>
I for one will <u class=""><b class="">support</b></u> the policy because there is no such policy to deal with such a scenario in the first place

I have no problem with your views, but I think you may be confused.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>There IS a policy in place: <a href="https://www.afrinic.net/library/policies/697-ipv4-soft-landing-policy" class="">https://www.afrinic.net/library/policies/697-ipv4-soft-landing-policy</a></div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>This is a suggestion to amend the existing soft landing policy and making it more restrictive.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>I have a few issues with the existing policy, but I think it is a reasonable compromise in the circumstances.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>My objection is to adding further restrictions, as is proposed in the -bis proposal.</div>

<div class="">and the longer we stay without one the more vulnerable we become.</div>

Actually we have one in place, so I am not sure I understand your point.</div>

<div class="">So I like to think I see the logic in the arguments for the proposal however there is s greater danger in having NO measure or policy in place rather than have a perfect one in place when it is too late.

Well this is actually what is being discussed here: we have a measure and policy in place right now. This is a proposal to refine it further. I have yet to see a justification I can accept for the need for such further refinement.</div>

</div>
<div>Unless I have missed your comment completely, in which case I apologise.</div>
