<div dir="ltr">Hello Jordi,<br>Let me point out as well that the bylaws is a document that was drafted by lawyers and that should have no relevance in the management of the PDP. The fact that you are trying to create a conflict between both is jeopardizing the core purpose of the bottom-up process. You can’t just skip the community and its consensus and allow the board to modify the CPM/PDP. The only waste of time in this entire situation is trying to invent non-existent solutions that do not comply with the PDP in the first place.<div>Regards,</div><div>Wijdane</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">Le lun. 22 févr. 2021 à 10:34, JORDI PALET MARTINEZ via RPD <<a href="mailto:rpd@afrinic.net">rpd@afrinic.net</a>> a écrit :<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi SM,<br>
<br>
I fully understand the difference between community and PDWG, precisely I was traying to put all them, to show that I believe, everybody understands that there are several (not just 2) "groups" involved in what we do "related to AFRINIC and the PDP".<br>
<br>
Even if the situation is not urgent for you, it is for others in the PDWG. Even if this is only my case, I think it is important. So please, forget for a minute if it is important or not, let's stick to the wording of 11.4 and my question, and let me to rephrase them to exclude the emergency aspect:<br>
<br>
Is the Board understanding that they can adopt policies only related to Resources or also policies not related to resources which modifying the CPM/PDP?<br>
<br>
I've added CPM/PDP, because we can see in the CPM parts witch are "clearly" related to resources, others "indirectly" related to resources, and others clearly related to the PDP itself and not Resources at all.<br>
<br>

<br>
There is a distinction between the Working Group and the "community", <br>
i.e. the Working Group is a subset of the "community".<br>

<br>
I'll have to look at the minutes of the last Board meeting to see <br>
whether there was a discussion of Article 11.4. I doubt that the <br>
situation could be described as urgent. That is based on my reading <br>
of the members-discuss mailing list.<br>
