It is regretful that ETNO processes (driven by the members of ETNO), that relate to the thinking and discussing of issues before they are submitted to a mailing list that makes decisions about policy proposals which impact the future of the internet in the RIPE region, might stir such discussions. We appreciate that ETNO thinks about RIPE policy and discusses it, but
It also regretful that the substance behind ETNO's points that have been thought deeply by representatives of ETNO and who believe in the bottom up processes of the RIR internet community is not the focus of the discussion. I agree. We should all focus on the content of the concerns. That does mean that they will have to be discussed here, and that those who represent ETNO take part in that discussion, explain why they have those concerns and be willing to accept another outcome than put in the ETNO statement when good counter arguments are given. Finally, ETNO has considered this new version of this proposal and will post its opinion to the RIPE list separately; having ensured that it has followed the bottom-up processes defined by its members. Thank you. We appreciate feedback to policy proposals. If you want the ETNO opinion to be used in the RIPE policy development process just make sure that there will be ETNO members / representatives that will discuss
Hello Christina, please do the public discussion on this mailing list instead of making a statement. This is required to keep the policy development process open and transparent. that opinion openly on this list. Thank you, Sander Steffann APWG co-chair
