<div dir="ltr"><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Cambria,serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">Dear Alain,</span><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Cambria,serif">First of all, you say that the changes made by the authors during
the last call are not editorial changes and therefore cannot be accepted as per
the PDP. Yet nowhere in the CPM this is stated explicitly.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Cambria,serif">In this appeal you also stated that the need for some policy
arose as early as 2015. The solution to this problem has been dragged out for over
5 years and now that we have a functional proposal you are coming up with
excuses that are insignificant in the context of the need of this policy.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Cambria,serif">The changes done to the Resource Transfer Policy technically
do not violate the CPM, as the text does not state that only editorial changes
are allowed. In addition, nowhere in the CPM it states that the chairs are not
allowed to propose changes that reflect the concerns of the community. In fact,
it is their job to reflect all such issues in the summary. All the changes made
to this policy were in response to the issues raised by the community and were
necessary to make sure the policy is fully compatible with other RIRs. <br>
<br>
When it comes to the chairs addressing objections of the community, they have
requested several times for the community members to provide a list of specific
issues. However, instead of doing so, those opposing the policy continued attacking
the co-chairs. Therefore, I believe that it is not fair to blame the chairs for
not addressing the objections that were never properly raised.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Cambria,serif">To be fair, I do understand some of the concerns you raised
in your appeal, but I believe that passing this policy now would be much more
valuable than dragging this process for many more years. The progress made on
this policy is very important and I think it is high time we thought about the benefit
to the community above the subjective interpretations of the PDP. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Cambria,serif">Best,</p>
