    <p>Owen, I think you may be too poisoned about your view about staff
      and your exotic view on how the current policies should apply to
      this topic, so some of your points may be considered more a desire
      than what it really is.</p>
    <p>I don't quiet agree that this type of thing should not go under a
      proper analysis of the staff and as you may guess we will not
      always have a binary scenario for them to analyze. So your desire
      to remove this from them cannot work properly. Good or bad there
      is always a certain amount of subjectivity and in theory that is
      to protect African resources from being send out of the region if
      there is something that should stop that from happening. The most
      important thing in my view is that resources as protected from
      mismanagement and be allowed to be transferred when it should not.<br>
      I would love to have binary, exact and mathematical thing for most
      things on life, but that reality is not like that.</p>
    <p>I am not sure as well the policy should include non RIR members
      that may only exist in ARIN due this weird different things work
      out there.</p>
    <p>With that said I am not saying I agree with this proposal as
      written at this point.</p>
    <p>Regards<br>
      Fernando<br>
