Hi Nick, Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. The section on policy development was removed from the charter because there was a general consensus that the document was too lengthy, with too many detailed points and enumerations. We decided to shorten the entire charter, and as part of that, we omitted the section on policy development since it does not need to be explicitly mentioned. Most working group charters, including our current one, do not specifically reference policy development. However, this does not mean that the working group is excluded from developing policies. There was some discussion around the idea of exempting this WG from policy-making, but our current RIPE Co-Chair, Niall, expressed that he would not want to lose this WG as a potential vehicle for policy development. I hope this helps clarify things! Best regards, Markus On 01.08.24 17:00, Nick Hilliard wrote:
Hi Markus,
This looks ok. The section on policy development has been removed from this version of the charter, I'm guessing after the discussion in Krakow. Do you have a short summary to outline why this section was dropped? The 12,500 words in the steno logs (https://ripe88.ripe.net/archives/steno/22/) are longer than my attention-span-of-a-mosquito brain is easily able to digest.

Hi everyone,
I hope you're all doing well.
We've made some updates to the charter based on our last meeting's discussion and the feedback we received. We tried to incorporate everyone's suggestions as best as we could. Please take a few minutes to look over the revised charter. We would like to get your feedback until 30th of August.
