Maybe you can start by explaining why this change 'will' cause breakage in the wild and how significant that breakage will be.
Denis, you were clear in your email earlier today that you believe that your proposed solution for NWI-4 will cause problems. This is a good thing to put on the table because it allows for the possibility of discussing what level of breakage you think may be involved with your proposal. The more important issue is that as chair, you previously said that if there were no interest expressed in progressing NWI-4, that it would be dropped. But this turned into a request to the RIPE NCC to produce an impact / implementation report on a specific proposed solution, without any community discussion or any indication of consensus. If you want to propose some technical solutions to deal with this issue, I'm sure everyone would welcome this - although it would be normal to recuse yourself from the consensus call in this sort of situation.
