<p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">I support the adoption of this
draft. </span></p>
<p>Hierarchical AS-SETs solve a problem. We need this and such a
draft should be adopted without difficulty. I don't see any
benefit in not adapting it. </p>
<p>Lets not resist for the sake of resisting but understand why hierarchical
AS-SETs are important. MANRS site has more on this here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://manrs.org/2022/12/why-network-operators-should-use-hierarchical-as-sets/">https://manrs.org/2022/12/why-network-operators-should-use-hierarchical-as-sets/</a>. </p>
<p>Please don't load this list with AI puke, its annoying, stupid
and the repetitiveness is an eye sore. You may enjoy your AI
output but that may not be the case for most of us, that is for
your Facebook post. </p>
<p>Mailing lists like this solves real problems and people make
decision base on the discussions but if we fill this list with
some garbage from ChatGTP or whatever, we will kill the spirit of
the discussion, the human engagement and the results that define
our community and the internet. </p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>BS </p>

<pre wrap="" class="moz-quote-pre">Dear PDWG,
The Policy Development Working Group (PDWG) Chairs have initiated a Last Call for this proposal, following rough consensus at the AFRINIC-37 Public Policy Meeting held in hybrid format in Nairobi, Kenya on 24 June 2026.
* Proposal Name: Hierarchical Names for New AS-SETs
* Proposal ID: AFPUB-2026-ASN-001-DRAFT02
* Proposal URL: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.afrinic.net/afpub-2026-asn-001-draft02.html">https://www.afrinic.net/afpub-2026-asn-001-draft02.html</a>
Last Call closes on: July 31, 2026, at 23:59 UTC.
Please note the staff observation regarding implementation constraints: due to the current prioritization of the MyAFRINIC v2 deployment, physical database implementation of this policy will be scheduled once the MyAFRINIC v2 deployment is concluded.
As always, we kindly request that all participants adhere to the AFRINIC Code of Conduct<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://www.afrinic.net/code"><https://www.afrinic.net/code></a> to maintain a respectful and professional environment on the mailing list.
Kind regards,
Haitham el Nakhal
AFRINIC PDWG Co-Chair
