This will not be your last chance to comment. This 43 day consultation period is equivalent to the four-week discussion phase in the PDP, and is part of a longer process that started in October last year. Hervé, why did you choose to not extend the current deadline? Are you absolutely certain this is how you'd like lead the collective deliberative process?
There will be another consultation once the next draft is published in the later half of this year. This will be discussed at RIR and other meetings after the summer, as well as on mailing lists:
- APNIC 60: 4-11 September, Da Nang, Vietnam - Africa Internet Summit: 15-19 September, Ghana - LACNIC 44: 6-10 October, San Salvador, El Salvador - RIPE 91: 20-24 October, Bucharest, Romania - ICANN 84: 25-30 October, Muscat, Oman - ARIN 56: 30-31 October, Arlington, USA
Another cycle of review may be required if the feedback indicates that substantial changes are required to the final draft. This could result in the timeline being extended before the process moves to the Approval phase.
I think the consultation period is appropriate and those handling this effort are acting in the best interests of the Internet. Regards, Hank
