To put it frankly I got utterly bored of that too. Looks like a kind of scholastic dispute. Think both positions are clear enough ( for about a week already ) and no further discussion makes sense -- it would be just time wasting. Of course if somebody is still interested it might be continued. What people think about that? As for my position there left just one thing which needs to be clarified -- about the language matter. There is a trivial programming approach -- if we have to join a bit non-standard thing ( Russian language for this case ) to the whole object ( Registry ) it seems worth enough to create an interface between them ( a RIR or office ) till the incompatibility gets fixed ( everybody knows English okay ). Usually such an interface is hidden and makes no trouble for the whole thing just slightly slowing local communications. >>>>> "P" == Peppino Anselmi <peppo(a)inet.it> writes: P> To: violet(a)rosnet.net (Sergey A.

However, it still reflects the general attitude. Moreover, it reflects the attitude of people who _do_ care, who are interested and who can predict the possible impact on the whole Internet community. A resposible guy of a newly emerged LIR is very unlikely to make his own jugement right away just following the discussion. On the contrary the particpants of this mailing list are from all major players in this field. You might have asked, and you once had, why we are still going with this discussion, after we had been given a reasuarance that nobody would be compelled to be serviced by a new RIR. I'm arfaid that, in order to justify the establishment of the new RIR, you will be effectively _forced_ to continue your efforts in seeking agressevely for other countries from the former USSR to be included in the service area, otherwise, you think, you are not going to receive a huge block of IP address space.
