I can figure several possible ways to avoid that. 1) Contractual (not sure if this can be done in a policy) changes to indicate than in case of a policy violation, the account becomes frozen immediately, until actions to close the account are completed. 2) A modification to the transfers policy that indicates that no transfers can be initiated if the any of the parties are involved in an investigation for policy violation. 3) A specific policy about implications of policy violations.
If instead of that we want explicit text about that in this policy proposal, that means possibly a way for slowing down the process, which at the time being it seems to me there is a major agreement of favor of doing something. Furthermore, having explicit text here means that other policy violations need to have their own way, and I think we must have a single path for resolving those issues, not one for each possible policy violation case.
Does that make sense ?
Can we agree that it will be better to have this discussion in a separate thread/policy proposal, in order to avoid this to be a show-stopper for this policy proposal?
Would the chairs allow that thread in this list or suggest an alternative WG for a possible policy proposal?
Good question, but I think that any policy dealing with changing how the NCC should react to policy violations will be... complex. I also don't think AA-WG is the right place for such a general policy. So if you, as the author, don't wish to insert it into your policy (and I can understand your reasoning fully), then I think a separate policy, likely pointed towards somewhere like NCC Services would be more apt. I would caution that such things are likely to have a large interaction with/involvement of the NCC Membership, where such discussions have been very divided in the past. I think you and many other people are aware of this, but I just wanted to flag it.
